Llewellyn L. Cayvan String Instrument Scholarship

Mr. and Mrs. Leo L. Cayvan were long-time supporters of Calvin鈥檚 music program.

Woodwinds, Brass, String, and Percussion Instruments

Calvin has a large supply of instruments for use by students who are taking lessons and/or participating in an ensemble.

Handbells

Calvin owns a five-octave set of Malmark handbells and three octaves of choir chimes.

This includes a complete chest of viols (two trebles, a tenor, and two basses, including a seven-string consort bass viol), a matched consort of Renaissance recorders (SATB and Great Bass), a set of crumhorns (SATB), and a set of sackbuts (AATB). We also have a Baroque cello, medieval vielles and rebecs, shawms, kortholts, and rackets, along with various other wind, string, and percussion instruments.
