HAMMOND – Southeastern Louisiana University’s Community Music School is accepting
registrations for its 2021 session, which begins Aug. 30.
Registration will remain open throughout the semester, however registrations
received after Aug. 23 will incur a $20 late fee.
The 13-week fall semester will offer individual lessons on various instruments
and voice to students of all ages at three locations – Southeastern’s main campus
in Hammond, the Southeastern Livingston Center in Walker, and Northshore Technical
Community College in Lacombe.
In addition to individual lessons, opportunities for music theory classes and
ensemble formation are also available upon request, said CMS Director Jivka Duke.
Students will be able to choose whether their lessons will take place in person, online,
or a combination of both.
“We look forward to launching the fall 2021 semester. In addition to the weekly
music lessons and the three end of the semester recitals, we will have two concerts
where the winners of the CMS Concerto Competition will perform as soloists with the
Southeastern Chamber Orchestra and the Southeastern Symphony Orchestra,” she said.
“We also plan to have a performance at the Jolly Jingles Market in November, so we
look forward to a busy fall semester with an abundance of unforgettable events.”
Duke said that because of the generous sponsorship of First Guaranty Bank, the
CMS will offer a discounted tuition this academic year to students who qualify.
