Celebrating 40 years!

Attend our 40th Anniversary Concert & Celebration

Since 1982, Project STEP (String Training Education Program) has provided talented young musicians that identify with historically underrepresented groups in classical music with comprehensive music instruction.
We envision a world in which the classical music profession reflects the racial and ethnic diversity of our communities.
