A professional band uses a set of strings once. One night. One gig. Then they go in the bin - with ninety-five percent of their life remaining. Rewind captures that wealth and uses it to keep children in music tuition.
Music tuition is free. Paying for costly strings, repairs, and consumables is not.
Scotland provides free music tuition in many local authorities, but tuition is not the barrier - maintenance is. A snapped string, a broken bridge, a worn bow. Small costs to most families and insurmountable costs to others.
Children in our most deprived communities are giving up their instruments not because of ability or ambition - but because of a repair bill their family cannot afford.
Meanwhile, the music industry discards tonnes of perfectly viable strings every year. Rewind closes this loop, for good.
Children in Scotland's most deprived communities receive professional-grade strings free of charge. No cost, no barriers - just the chance to keep playing.
Private schools access professional-grade strings at below-retail pricing while delivering tangible community impact. Every Harmonise partnership funds free strings to children in Scotland's most deprived communities, with three partnership levels available - from simple procurement to deeper engagement.
