Lincoln, Neb.—Have you always wanted to play the piano? Or have you forgotten how to play piano since you were a child? Join Lincoln’s Community Piano Experience (CPE), a group piano class offered as an outreach of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s Glenn Korff School of Music piano pedagogy program, now hosted in the new Westbrook Music Building.
This program provides group piano classes focused on developing essential music reading and piano-playing skills. Tailored for adults, the program offers classes at both beginning and intermediate levels.
Cristina Vlad Hayes (DMA 2013) is in her second year of teaching and coordinating the Lincoln CPE program and will guide students through their musical journey.
The two classes offered include:

• Intermediate Class: For students with some piano and music reading skills. Held Thursday evenings from 5:30-7 p.m. in the new music building from Sept. 18-Dec. 11 (no class Nov. 20 or 27).
