Harris Academy of the Arts announces and welcomes new instructor Christine Collins! Christine will be teaching all ages in violin, viola, beginning piano, and voice. She will also teach Children’s Music Academy, a group piano class exclusively taught at Harris Academy of the Arts in Lincoln, and a variety of ensembles.
Christine received her Bachelor degree from the University of North Texas where she studied Music Education with a focus in orchestra and elementary music education. She has had opportunities to study abroad all over the world including the Orff Institute in Austria, the Kodaly Institute in Hungary, and Universidad Veritas in Costa Rica.
She began studying piano at the age of 5 and started violin lessons at the age of 6. She was involved in band, orchestra, and choir throughout middle and high school and college. In 2013, Christine began playing with the mariachi group Mariachi Aguilas and had the amazing opportunity of opening for the world-renowned group Mariachi Sol de Mexico when they performed in North Texas in 2014.
