The 2020 Music Artistry Program has come and gone, and good job to everyone! Our studio had 16 students participating in the annual M. A. P./Adjudications at St. Martins' University this week. The Visiting Artist for this year, Greg Presley from Gonzaga University, enjoyed listening to and working with all of our students and asked me to pass on his CONGRATULATIONS to each one of you who played. WELL DONE! I know a lot of dedication and practice hours made this happen, with each student performing 2 memorized pieces. Thank you also to all the parents and families behind this amazing young talent. Three students were chosen to perform at the OMTA Honors Recital this Sunday (March 15) at Westwood Baptist Church.
Mr. Presley chose: Alex (Gershwin), Lilia (Kapustin), and Chloe (Chopin). Hooray!
One alternate was chosen: Sky (Haydn)
Honorable Mentions were given to: Luke (Tansman) and Judson (Mozart). A round of applause to all of you! I will be sending individual emails with notes from Mr. Presley to each participating student.
