SUMMARY:After-hours Concert: NIU Suzuki Strings featuring High School Students
DESCRIPTION:Join an after-hours concert with the NIU Suzuki Strings in the library’s main lobby! \n\n\n\nThe NIU Suzuki Strings program includes children and their parents or caretakers from ages 4 throughout high school. This method of learning music is modeled after the natural and positive way we learn our native language.  It is through daily listening and practice\, positive reinforcement and encouragement of the family and community that children learn to play music. The goal of the Suzuki method is to nurture sensitivity\, perseverance\, cooperation\, confidence\, creativity\, awareness\, and other life skills that strengthen our world one person and relationship at a time. \n\n\n\nThese high school and middle school students have all been studying violin individually and collectively for several years. They strengthen their school and community music ensembles from all over northern Illinois. The NIU Suzuki Strings will perform a 45-minute concert of classical works by Vivaldi\, Bach and Pachelbel with Tangos\, Fiddle Tunes and Popular Music mixed in as well. \n\n\n\nThis group of 13 teens is primarily student lead with support from their Suzuki instructors\, Courtney McNamarra\, Laurie Rodriguez\, and Ann Montzka Smelser. \n\n\n\nThis after-hours concert is free and open to all. No registration is required. Doors will open at 6:00 and music will begin at 6:30 p.m. \n\n\n\nFor additional information\, please contact Samantha at samanthah@dkpl.org or at (815) 756-9568 ext. 1701.
