The First Note
The Texas All-State Strings Camp began in 2008 in the living room of its founder, Daniel Saenz. Very soon the camp had to find a more spacious location as the attendees doubled in number in the camp’s second and third year. Now in its ninth year, the Texas All-State Strings Camp serves about 100 students each year and assists many of them on achieving their goals of making the Region and Texas All-State orchestras.
