The Buskaid Academy of String Teaching and Performance was established by Rosemary Nalden in January 1997 in response to requests from the local community in Diepkloof Soweto. Initially the Academy consisted of fifteen members of another Diepkloof Project which the Buskaid Trust had been funding, and a few new beginners. Since then it has more than quadrupled in size and currently comprises approximately 115 students ranging in age from four to thirty-two, all of whom are drawn from the less privileged local community.
OK CLAUDIA!
