Jane Perry is the director of Kids in Koncert at Lenoir-Rhyne University. Perry has led the music program offering the internationally famous Suzuki musical training method. Founded in 1982, the popular program provides instruction to students of all ages (age 4 to adult) in violin, viola, cello, bass, flute, harp and piano. Perry provides students a weekly private lesson with the parent in attendance. In addition, students are also offered group lesson opportunities to practice the common repertoire, refine music reading skills and perform.

Perry is a member of the LR Servus Universitas Society. She was inaugurated in 2016 as a notable way of honoring employees who have dedicated the better part of their lives to serve the mission of LR and make it a better place for those who come after them. To be a member of this society, a Lenoir-Rhyne employee must reach at least 25 years of continuous, full-time service. Of literally thousands of individuals who have been employed by the university, fewer than 150 have reached this milestone.
