2021 Spring Strings Concert
Welcome! We are so glad that you're here and we hope you enjoy our online "concert." Please take a minute to watch the video below, which will introduce and guide you through the music.
Dear Veritas Community,
In a year when the majority of student musicians across our country had no choice but learning via virtual engagement, Veritas String Ensembles were blessed to practice the art of string playing in person.

On behalf of the 102 students who participate in our string orchestra program, I am deeply grateful for the support of the administration, our families and the LORD for making it possible for us to safely pursue string playing during this pandemic. While we would have preferred to share with you the compelling rhythms and melodies of our repertoire live, these concert videos provide a unique view into our community of talented young musicians.
Enjoy our sights and sounds!
Grace and peace,
Mrs. Lilli Benko
