Indiana Strings PROUD!!!!
I was putting up cool pictures onto our Senior High strings bulletin board today and stopped suddenly as I saw the name on this photo!
Chloe Trevor's mom was my first piano teacher and my brother's first violin teacher. She was concertmaster of the IAJHS Orchestra, the IHS Orchestra, and the IUP Orchestra through the mid-1970s. Today, Chloe's mother, Heidi Peterson Trevor Itashaki is a member of the 1st violin section of the Dallas Symphony. She has had an immeasurable influence on the lives of my family and of the Indiana musical community.
You can find Chloe Trevor's amazing performances on YouTube, and subscribe to her channel.
Here is a link to her YouTube channel:
I highly recommend her Dance Macabre interpretation, which is absolutely brilliant. Today, she represents Southwest Strings, an outstanding company to choose for all of your stringed instrument needs.
We are INDIANA STRINGS PROUD of Chloe, her mom, Heidi, and all of their accomplishments and inspiration!!!!!
Heidi and Chloe are a reminder to all of us in the IASD Orchestras that we all have SEEDS OF GREATNESS on the inside. All we need to do is water those seeds through consistent practice, working hard for our teachers, and not giving up on our dreams!!!!!
PS...(from Ms. Laird)....A subscription to Strings magazine would be an outstanding Christmas present for any of our string students. Keep your eye on this blog, since I'll be posting the rest of my suggested Christmas list for string students soon...
