The Northwestern State University Music Academy will begin its fourth year on Monday, Aug. 20. The academy is under the direction of Northwestern State music faculty Dr. Christine Allen and Dr. Francis Yang and offers piano, guitar and percussion lessons for students of all ages as well as adults.
NSU piano majors Robyn Tan and Ramon Barralaga will teach piano. Jake English and Jose Miguel Colon will teach guitar and Juan Manuel Santos will teach percussion.
Last year, academy students performed in a Christmas concert and spring recital. Students also participated in the National Federation of Music Clubs Festival, the Central Music Teachers’ Association Sonatina Festival and the Louisiana Music Teachers Association Upper Elementary Auditions.
