Sonatina / Sonata Festival 2019

Each Spring the Richardson Music Teachers Association hosts a Sonatina/Sonata Festival. This year’s festival was held on March 2, 2019.

Sonatas are musical pieces that are a grid pattern for organizing musical melodies and harmonies. Sonatinas are “little” sonatas. Students must prepare and memorize their piece for the festival and will receive a judge’s evaluation and a certificate for their performance.

The evaluation consists of three possible ranks:

I+ = Superior with Honor
I = Superior
II = Excellent


Points are awarded for each rank. With each increment of 15 points, students are eligible to receive a trophy.
