Orquesta Escuela of San Martín launches fundraising campaign for instruments

The Orquesta Escuela of San Martín has launched a solidarity campaign to raise 12 million pesos to purchase two symphonic timpani. Director Hugo Arcidiácono stated that the need for new instruments arises from an increase in student enrollments and the desire to expand the percussion section's sound.

The instruments are to be custom-built by a company in Córdoba. To support the initiative, the orchestra has launched an official website with a donations section and a Mercado Pago alias (cooperadora.orquesta). Arcidiácono has called upon the local community and business owners to contribute to the effort.
