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.

strings quartet

we are in the progress of forming a strings quartet group
which will be focusing for performance in school.

strings quartet group should consists of 3 violinists and 1 cellist.
we will be fair and will be holding an audition for interested players
in NP strings.

this group of members will continue to be as a member of NP strings and
the quartet group practice will not affect the normal practice times.
this is just a small group of members being taken out to focus for performing on stage
whenever we are being invited to perform.

it is perfectly alright if your violin/cello skills aren't up
to standard. instructor will teach from the very beginning as long as you have the passion
for it.

do contact me for any enquires or if you are interested.
thanks.
