| Fall Festival 2008 |
| |
You can now put NFMTA Fall Festival 2008 on your calendars! Fall Festival is confirmed
for Saturday, October 11, 2008 at Northview High School. This is a little earlier in the fall
than in past years. It means that we will need to begin on Festival music a little earlier
with our students, but it also means we will have more time after Festival to prepare for
Celebrate With Music, normally held the first weekend in December. Fall Festival is a
judged event that is open to students of all ages and levels. The competitive aspect is
de-emphasized and judges are instructed to be positive and encouraging with their written
comments. As such, it is a perfect first-time festival opportunity for young students!
This year, in addition to performance awards, each judge will be giving a special award
for best performance of a Classical Period piece.
Festival Guidelines and forms are already posted on our website (www.nfmta.com) in the next few weeks.
The Guidelines and forms will also be provided in our Handbook at the first meeting in August, and
explained at that meeting. The deadline to register your students is the date of the September meeting.
Festival 2008 Co-Chairs are Sharleen Mancini, Jenny Sutton and Paula Wamsley.
