When Lilburn Middle School's orchestra director, Julian Gonzalez came to see Adam Crane at his teaching studio in Lawrenceville, Georgia, the Quest project was born.

The Quest for String Playing Mastery was composed over decades and now has evolved to become StringQuest.com -- the most enjoyable music resources on earth!
