calendar icon11 Nov 2019    

The UNL & LPS String Project will present its fall concert on Monday, November 25th, 2019 at 6PM in the Park Middle School Auditorium (Rm. 118). Students from all over Lincoln will perform in the concert which will be led and conducted by Master Teacher Dottie Ladman and the following String Project Teachers who are string students in the Glenn Korff School of Music: Jonah Bennett, Jestin Cam, India Enter, Jacob Hardy, Tori Hartley, Aaron Jaapar, and Patrick Knowles. The concert is free and open to the public.

The UNL/LPS String Project is a joint effort between the Glenn Korff School of Music at The University of Nebraska and Lincoln Public Schools. It is an after-school teacher-training program that gives children the opportunity to begin playing a stringed instrument before they start in their school. It also affords the same opportunity to students who are home-schooled or who attend private or parochial schools that may not have string programs, as well as students who live in outlying areas. Classes are held twice weekly for beginning students at Park Middle School. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to participate in a program with students from all over Lincoln and the surrounding area—and at a very young age.
