FALL RECITAL - NOVEMBER
All students of WRMTA member teachers are eligible to perform in one of the Fall recitals held at the Akron Public Library auditorium. Students from elementary to advanced levels are eligible to participate. Performers and audience alike enjoy the sounds of the beautiful Steinway concert grand piano.
Two recitals are scheduled at 1:30 and 3pm.
DUET FESTIVAL - FEBRUARY
Our annual Duet Festival, usually held in February, is a unique afternoon with something for everyone! We begin with a recital of student duet teams. A wonderful guest artist performance and refreshments round out the afternoon. All this, in one event - don't miss it!
RIBBON FESTIVAL - MARCH
Ribbon Festival is held in March at selected locations throughout the Akron area. Participating students are invited to carefully prepare one solo representative of their current level of study (4 minutes maximum performance time). The piece is played from memory for a qualified judge. In addition to the valuable written critique of the performance, the student receives a colorful ribbon identifying the number of years of participation in the Festival.
HIGH SCHOOL GALA
The High School Gala is a formal evening event showcasing high school students of WRMTA teachers. Each student's accomplishments are acknowledged with a printed bio and certificate, a gift from WRMTA, and an upscale reception for family and friends!
ADULT STUDENT EVENINGS
Usually held in the Fall and in the Spring, these are informal events to allow our adult students to showcase their progress and share their journey of learning with peers. A wine and cheese reception puts all at ease!
