Here’s our newsletter for December:
December 1, 2023
Greetings, Colleagues!
BREAKFAST MEET: Our next Breakfast Meet is Friday, December 15, 9:00 am at Wyomissing Family Restaurant. You can still respond HERE if you’d like to join us; or just shoot me an email. Having a head count helps me determine if I’ll need to call ahead to reserve a table. This gathering isn’t just for RMTA members, so bring a friend!
STUDENT EVENTS: Our next student event is the Spring Festival March 9/10, 2024 at Immanuel UCC. Any type of music is permitted. Memory encouraged
but not a requirement for participation. Visit the website for details and registration information. We made one slight revision regarding scores: we’re returning to the pre-covid standard of requiring original publisher’s scores for the judges. Also, the comment sheet has been simplified so we have one format for all instruments and voice.
PARTNERS IN MUSIC: Still looking for more participants! If you need ideas, give me a call. Participants do not have to be RMTA members as we’re making this a community event. The information is attached to this newsletter again. Please share!
RMF SCHOLARSHIP AUDITIONS: RMF has posted their 2024 scholarship audition information: March 16/17 for pre-college and April 14 for college.
Application deadline is January 26, 2024.
RANDOM Notes
For some more obscure holiday music, CLICK HERE. The list includes an almost tonal piece by Schoenberg.
For more of a jazz style selection (mostly), CLICK HERE. Our family favorite has always been the Andy Williams “Most Wonderful Time of the Year.”
VIVA LA COMPANIE!
Since there is not much going on at the moment, this letter is short and sweet. Happy Holidays!
Stay inspired!
