President’s Note

One of my greatest pleasures is to hear all the marvelous performances of our Student Affiliates at convention. I know you enjoy that as well. So, our wonderful SA Performance Coordinator has planned for you to be able to do that from the comfort of your own home this year! Joanna Reeder sent in all the information and links of our Performance Contest Winners. You will find that all below. I know you will find the performances by these fine young musicians enthralling and beautiful. Thank you, Joanna, for all your hard work this year.

The TMTA Trustees have been working so diligently to make this year’s Teacher Enrichment Conference an inspiring and engaging time for all. If you haven’t made plans for this event, do so now before the rates increase. You won’t be disappointed!

Until next time –

Be Safe, Be Healthy, and Be In Tune with TMTA
