This summer, I plan to attend another conference: the National Conference on Keyboard Pedagogy! It’s being held July 27-30.
Some fast facts:
- NCKP is held every other year.
- NCKP is sponsored by the Francis Clark Center and held in Chicago.
- Speakers this year include Dennis Alexander, Randall Faber, Forrest and Akiko Kinney, George Litterst, Mario Ajero, and many more.
- Recital performers include pianist Ann Schein.
For full-time college students, there are tuition scholarships available to cover conference tuition. Since I am eligible for them (crossing my fingers that I’ll get one) and since Chicago is not far from me, it was pretty much a no-brainer to decide to attend! This will be the last time I am eligible for student rates for conference tuition, so I am totally going to take advantage of this! =)
Click here and browse the menu on the left to read more about the NCKP. No membership to an association is required to attend this conference. Be sure to register before this tomorrow (Friday), April 15 to receive the early bird rates!
Sounds like a good opportunity- I wish we had something like this in our area!
Wish I could go! I’m looking forward to reading about the sessions here.
That’s the next best thing!
Thanks, LaDona! =)
