Music is a more potent instrument than any other for education, because rhythm and harmony find their way into the inward places of the soul

About Vivo Strings

In 2013, Sylvia DiCrescentis moved her home studio business to 202 Worcester St. in North Grafton, naming the studio Vivo Strings. Since then, she has been running the studio teaching lessons, chamber ensembles and running rehearsals. Vivo Strings has expanded to include additional teachers to accommodate more students in the Central Massachusetts area. Inquire to find out more about our available schedule!

We currently offer violin, viola, cello, bass, piano and guitar lessons at the studio. All of our teachers are passionate about music and the education of our students. Each of our teachers not only run busy teaching schedules, but performing schedules as well. The added benefit of educators also being performers is that they are continuously honing their own craft while giving guidance to students in their studio.

Each year, we hold several recitals and performances to help give students direction, see others perform as well as give families a chance to see progress from year to year. We also offer chamber ensembles and have connections with area youth orchestras. These opportunities give students a wide variety of challenges and experiences that produce well rounded musicians, whatever the level.
