RMTA 2020 Spring Festival

Congratulations to these students who submitted video recordings of their performances during the third week of July for the 2020 Spring Festival.

This year the RMTA Spring Festival was cancelled because of Covid-19 and rescheduled for the month of July. Repertoire for the Spring Festival is by teacher's choice. Students memorize one piece of music to perform. They receive a rating, certificate, and evaluation. The ratings have a point value, and for every 15 points earned, the RMTA recognizes the student with a trophy.

2019-2020 Awards and Achievements

We were unable to host our annual spring recital this year due to the pandemic and social distancing regulations put in place. It is during our recitals that recognition is given to the students who have worked hard and achieved many goals throughout the school year. They have been able to pick up their medals, trophies and certificates at the studio, but we would like to list them here along with their achievements. 

Students are listed in alpha order by first name. 

We are so proud of all of you. Congratulations!
