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.

Now that music camp is over, we really have to Push all our pieces.
The timings and performance during the rehearsal of music camp was very bad.
We have 1 week more to FC.
Get all your family and friends to see you perform.ITS FREE!

Another thing is that without valid reason for the absences of music camp will be taken as
quitting of the club for guitarist. However please get back to me if you really want to continue in this
club though you didnt attend music camp.

Thanks

We will be having our annual internal concert on this 31st October 2009.
The concert will be absolutely free!

We will be performing a wide genres of songs, from classical to hard metal pieces.
The concert will be absolutely suitable for you and your family/friends.
Soothing songs like the famous Pink Panther will be more than suitable for little toodlers, while metalic songs like Hotel California will be addictive for rock and heavy metal fans.
