NATCHITOCHES – The NSU Music Academy is enrolling students for the spring semester. The academy was established in 2014 and is directed by Northwestern State music faculty Dr. John Price and Dr. Francis Yang. The academy offers piano, guitar, percussion and voice lessons for students from age six to adults. Lessons are taught face to face or online. Teachers at the academy are graduate and undergraduate music students studying at Northwestern State.

Last semester, students performed in a Monster Concert around Halloween and a Christmas Concert. This semester, they can perform in an end-of-semester Spring Recital in Magale Recital Hall. Many students will also perform in the NSU Music Festival. Students have also taken part in the National Federation of Music Clubs Festival, the Central Music Teachers’ Association Sonatina Festival and the Louisiana Music Teachers Association Upper Elementary Auditions.

Lessons begin the week of January 15. For more information and to register go to nsula.edu/musicacademy.
