MINUTES OF MEETING<br aria-hidden="true" />
<br aria-hidden="true" />
The general monthly meeting was held on Match 14 by zoom. Present were Angela and Lillian.<br aria-hidden="true" />

ROMANTIC FESTIVAL<br aria-hidden="true" />
<br aria-hidden="true" />
Zoom Instructions<br aria-hidden="true" />
The student has to go into audio settings and select original sound for
musicians. Under this be sure echo cancellation is also selected. Then
when they are back on the main video screen, they should see the option
to turn on in the upper left of their screen. I have had to help all my
students get into their audio settings to do this. Not so necessary if
they play an acoustic, but if they are on a digital keyboard you can not
hear any high notes unless this is on.<br aria-hidden="true" />
The student just have to configure the option to be displayed on the screen. It’s in the settings</span></div>

my name is Tim Girardot, and I'm the chairman for the Austin area Guild
auditions. I've learned that the in person judge for this year is Dr
Craig John Ralston, who is a singular judge, pianist and teacher. Please
see his bio and cover letter that's attached. <br />If anyone wishes to
have their students play for Dr Ralston this year, please feel free to
contact me via this email, or the phone numbers provided in the cover
letter, and let me know how many students you wish to audition. <br />This
year will be different in another, wonderful way--Austin's in person
auditions will now be held at the ACC School of Music, located in the
old Highland Mall in central Austin. <br />Your students will get to play on a NEW Yamaha C3 grand piano in a collegiate setting! <br />thank you for your time, and feel free to contact me with any questions. Have a great day!<br />sincerely,<br />Tim Girardot<br />Chairman, Austin chapter<br />American College of Musicians<br />"profound maxim" -----------dead philosopher<br /><br /></p><span class="em_N en_N"></span><ul class="hd_n P_0 H_6D6F M_0 ir3_0 iy_h D_F ab_C" data-test-id="navigable-list" role="menubar" tabindex="-1"><li class="G_e p_R" role="menuitem"><br /></li></ul>Lillian Martinezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05856847934332758899noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8263900163639265086.post-55355351943603800052022-12-16T11:06:00.001-08:002022-12-16T11:06:52.466-08:00Bluebonnet News<p> <br />Lillian Simmons<br />Secretary<br />Bluebonnet MTA<br />Website: http://bluebonnetmta.org/ <br />Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1990327091212286/ <br />email BluebonnetMTA@live.com <br /><br /><br />Dear Members of the Board and Teachers:<br /><br /><br />MINUTES OF MEETING<br /><br />The monthly meeting was held on December 13 on zoom.

all, I'm in search of fellow teachers who perhaps, like me, are
teaching from their living room and would rather teach from a dedicated
commercial office space.<br clear="none" />I have done some of the legwork
of finding a space and am looking for one or a few teaching musicians
to work together with to share costs. I have a full piano studio in
Round Rock, stable cash flow and some savings to contribute toward
deposits and furnishing an office suite. If this is also your situation
and you’re interested, please "reply to author" for to get in touch with
me for more information, or feel free to pass the message along to
suitable colleagues.<br clear="none" />Thank you!<br clear="none" />Graham<br clear="none" /></p>Lillian Martinezhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05856847934332758899noreply@blogger.com0
