History Of The Club

Ngee Ann Polytechnic Strings and Guitar ensemble (NPS) was established in 1992 by Mr.Gan See Wee, with the goal of promoting classical music amongst students. The club started out with a meagre 10 members and has since developed progressively to lots of members currently.

Ngee Ann Polytechnic Strings has performed at many outdoor events and functions. The main annual events are Virtuoso and Family concert. Other than performances, Ngee Ann Polytechnic Strings also organises various activities like the annual Music camp and Tea party to facilitate more bonding and a sense of unity between the club's members.

And to facilitate our new members, we also organise Guitar/Strings Fairs where we bring guitar/strings products and accessories to our club from vendors like Synwin, Maestro Guitars etc. This is to give them an opportunity to try and test the instruments with ease and also buy them at more affordable prices.

In the year 2006, Niibori Guitar was introduced to our club and has also played the instrument for the first time during our Virtuoso 13th Concert.

The club also aims to further inspire the club members to strive to bring the club to greater heights and to further enhance the reputation of Ngee Ann Strings by constantly performing at various functions outside school, which would bring greater glory to Ngee Ann Polytechnic.

Virtuoso 15th Audition

Hello folks!

This is an update on the audition. Due to poor response for the audition and some participants requesting for more time for preparation, we’ve decided to postpone the audition once again to 12 April 2008 (Saturday). The time and venue of the audition has yet to be confirmed. Sorry for the inconveniences caused to any of you. Any objections or suggestion to this change are welcomed. Do let Wei Sheng or Zi Ning know.Participants, who intend to form small groups, take note that 8 players are the most you can go.Last but not least, I would like to encourage members to take part in the audition. We wouldn’t know your talent if you don’t show. (:

Cheers,Zi Ning
