Piper Carr's Guitar Matching Fund
Fund the future students of classical guitar

[Video: guitar students rehearse Bach's Art of Fugue for their May 17 concert.]

 

Piper Carr (WWU 1992 Alum) has generously offered to gift an Endowment to Western’s Department of Music. Piper has regularly spoken about the experience and benefit he got from his undergraduate years at WWU and his time in the Classical Guitar Studio.

 

Every gift we receive today for the guitar studio will be matched by Piper's generous gift.

The Piper Carr Guitar Endowment will fund scholarship to students entering the Department of Music with a major in Guitar Performance. Maintaining a strong “performance” degree, by bringing in scholarship students raises the level for all students in the Guitar Studio, regardless of area: performance, Music Education or Theory and Composition as their actual major.

 

Western’s Guitar Program is for some time now recognized as the top program in the state of Washington. Let’s preserve the legacy!

 

Give today, May 30th to see your gift to WWU Guitar go even further with this very generous match!!
