Mission
Stringendo School For Strings was founded in 2000 by Belen and Patrick Clifford. The purpose of the school is to seek out and to train musically gifted students. These students are held to an exceptionally high standard, both musically and personally. We hold the belief that each student is capable of achieving greatness both on his or her instrument and in his or her character. Patrick and Belen both feel strongly that God has given them a great responsibility and an awesome privilege to be able to make a positive impact in the lives of their students. It is with great honor that they pass on what God has given them both musically and spiritually.
