Lutenist and educator Pedro Sperb received a grant to support LUTE4KIDS, an initiative to create a program centered around hands-on activities, promoting young students to experiment on the prototype lute developed in collaboration with the Lute Society of America and the luthier D.Yost. LUTE4KIDS is an educational tool that has been promoting unique learning by displaying small replicas of historical plucked instruments, such as lutes, theorbo, historical guitars and vihuelas. This program was designed to be implemented at educational institutions, oriented by the learning objective of making music directly from Renaissance sources, reading original tablature notation.
