Welcome to our site

January 2001
The new millennium marks the beginning of Westbury Park String site. For the first time ever new technology brings top advice from teachers from The St. Petersburg School ( Michail Vainman School ) to string players worldwide. Also for the first time ever, a large database of study notes on standard étude repertoire is being compiled and made freely available to everyone. We teach over 100 pupils in the South West of England, and this site compliments and supports these students outside lesson time. We also hope to assist string players and pupils throughout the world by furthering the pedagogical resources available online.

Dear visitor,

    This site is free. There is no subscription fee. Please use, print out, copy and take all the information away with you for free ! Unfortunately this site is not free for us....( think cost of PC equipment, software, scanners, internet subscriptions and phone bills.) Actually, those are small compared to the cost of a musical education in Germany, Russia, England and Italy needed to gain the necessary knowledge and expertise in the first place. Then there are all the hours spent writing articles, but again, those don't compare to all the hours of practice one needs to become a musician !

    In short, we would appreciate any donations from people who find the site useful and enlightening. You are under no obligation to make such a donation, but of course, such donations help keep the site running. With this kind of support we are able to offer more information and variety of articles on the site. In the meantime please enjoy what is here, and check back soon to see what has been added on our "What's new ?" page.

Yours,
WPS Staff
