The 15th Annual Community Music School Piano Festival will take place on Saturday, March 4, 2023 at CMS. This will be another performance opportunity for your child and a goal for the winter season – great for practice motivation! Each student will play two memorized pieces of music for our guest adjudicator and will receive a certificate and award ribbon as well as written comments on their performance. Important: Students who perform their solo pieces for the festival adjudicator WITH music will not be eligible for the honors recital.
Students who receive the highest rating at the adjudication may be asked to perform on a special Festival Honors Recital on Friday, March 10, 2023 at CMS. This is optional – it is not mandatory for those students asked to perform to do so – only if they wish. Please check the box on the Festival Registration form if your child would like to perform on the honors recital if selected. You will be notified by your teacher if your child has been selected to perform.
The cost of the festival will be $15.00 per student. Piano duos, trios or quartets are welcome to participate. Each member of the ensemble must register and pay the festival fee. Please complete the online Piano Festival Registration Form found under the Registration Tab on our website and submit payment no later February 25, 2023. Due to the nature of scheduling the individual adjudications, we cannot accept registrations after the due date.
Please consider having your piano student participate. We know it will be a positive experience!
