'Viols in Our Schools' Mission - ‘Viols in Our Schools’ is organized by Dr. Phillip W. Serna of the Spirit of Gambo – a Chicago Consort of Viols and is supported by the Viola da Gamba Society Third Coast as well as a pilot program of the Viola da Gamba Society of America. In 2008, ’Viols in Our Schools’ is pleased to announce a new video podcast – the GambaCast – as well as a new partnership with the Music Institute of Chicago. Based in the Chicago area, Dr. Serna works to bring the early western string instrument family known as the viola da gamba into many area schools – demonstrating solo literature from the Renaissance, Baroque and early Classical periods for treble viol, tenor viol, bass viol & violone. Please help us make viols accessible to both young and old. ‘Viols in Our Schools’ Copyright © 2008/ 2009 Dr. Phillip W. Serna.
