Success Stories

The 2020 Avondale-Logandale's Beginners Cuatro class demonstrate their command of the Puertorican Cuatro after only four classes. These students dedicated their time and effort into practicing this simple melody and the joy in their ultimate success radiates off of them!

While we currently cannot be together in the same way, there are alternative music education opportunities to take advantage of so that you too can share in this same sense of accomplishment.

The Chicago Cuatro Orchestra Project is offering FREE pre-recorded instruction on our website and FREE weekly virtual classes via Zoom. We hope to see you there! ​
