Registration is now open for the fall session of Southeastern Louisiana University’s Community Music School. The 13-week spring semester will begin Sept. 3 and will offer individual lessons on various musical instruments and voice to students of all ages at Southeastern’s main campus in Hammond and at the Livingston Literacy Center in Walker.
In addition to individual lessons, opportunities for music theory classes and ensemble formation are available upon request. Students will be able to choose between in person and online instruction. Registration for the fall session will remain open throughout the semester; however, all registrations received after Aug. 26 will have a $20 late fee added to the tuition fee.
“We take pride in providing opportunities for students of all ages to learn a musical instrument or develop their vocal ability,” said CMS Director Jivka Duke. “From a complete beginner to a professional level musician, we are happy to teach, guide and encourage students of all ages and are honored to be part of their musical journey.”
Duke said that due to the generous sponsorship of First Guaranty Bank this academic year, the CMS will offer discounted tuition to students who receive SNAP or Medicaid benefits.
