We had our "From the Studio to the Stage" benefit performance on February 8th at the Music Recital Hall on the U of M Campus, which was a great success! Performances by Margaret Baldridge, Christopher Hahn, Steven Hesla, Kimberly Gratland James, Dorothy Beck Peterson, Madeleine McKelvey, Molly Morrison, Gina Lapka, Margery Whatley, Fern Glass Boyd, Matthew Nord, Nancy Caron and Lila Cleminshaw. The crowd of around 250 people helped to raise money for our MMTA Scholarship Fund. Due to the success, we are planning this as an annual event. Also in February: Our newest member, Mary Anne Moseley, teamed up with Jean Alexander to organize an MMTA student recital at the Grizzly Peak Retirement community. Performances were given by piano and voice students to a large, appreciative audience. We have been invited back for another recital, which will be held on April 26th. The MMTA Spring Festival took place on March 21st and 22nd, with students participating in piano, strings and voice performances. Adjudicators included: Creighton James, voice, Julie Gosweiler and Barbara Miller, piano, and Pam Hillygus, strings. The festival culminated in an honors recital at St. Francis Xavier church which featured winners from each discipline. The students and teachers did a wonderful job! Gina Lapka
