Association will perform at the 2016 State Convention. The Convention
information is at http://www.tmta.org/convention/index.php
Students who have passed their theory tests may participate.
Ensemble Chair: Martha Marks
Students are required to attend mandatory local rehearsals, perform with the
group in a local recital,
perform with the group at the state convention. It is awesome to see these
groups performing on eight grand pianos. This would make a nice family
vacation. Rehearsals are Sundays in Cedar Park in May. The registration
deadline is mid February .
Here are videos of ensemble performances at the convention:
