A note from the Director…

It is such an exciting prospect to think of the life-changing journey that a person will take as they learn to play an instrument, igniting creativity, making millions of new connections in the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and experiencing the pure joy of music making.

As the director of the Omaha Conservatory of Music, I strive to bring cutting edge research from the field of neuroscience to the individualized music education of each student. The study of music engages the whole person: emotionally, intellectually, and physically. Research has shown that music education also has a significant positive influence on non-musical activities such as speech, attention, memory, reading, and language skills. (Kraus& Chandrasekaran, 2009)

The artist faculty at the Omaha Conservatory of Music is a group of highly-trained educators from diverse backgrounds who are eager to teach the next generation of young musicians. We offer private instruction, classes, and solo and group performances, as well as the chance to work with guest artists from all over the world. The Omaha Conservatory of Music is an institution of musical excellence. Come be a part of our community!

Sincerely,

Ruth Meints
Executive Director
Omaha Conservatory of Music
