In partnership with Cal State University San Bernardino, the San Bernardino Symphony Association and its volunteer Guild created a series of educational videos on each of the instruments commonly used in orchestral performance.
These videos, which feature Cal State music students discussing and performing their instruments, are used as part of our Music in the Schools program administered by Guild docents. We have also made them available for you!
