Gold Cup 2008

We had a wonderful turnout for the first annual San Jacinto Federated Music Club Gold Cup Junior Festival on March 1 and March 8. Students taking music lessons from our studio performed in Patriotic/Folk Song Piano Solo, Piano Solo, Piano Duet, Hymn Playing, Guitar Duet, Flute Solo, Musical Theater Vocal Solo, Art Song Vocal Solo, Musical Theater Vocal Duet, Art Song Vocal Duet, and Patriotic/Folk Vocal Solo events.

We are immensely proud of all of the hard work these students did in preparing for this festival, and commend them all for their participation. We'd also like to congratulate all the students who earned a Superior rating (including Superior Plus and Superior Minus) as they are now eligible to move ahead and compete in the TFMC All-State Music Festival for the chance to win an All-State Musician award as the most talented performer for their event and level in the entire state of Texas! You can visit the TFMC website at http://www.texasfederation.com/ but please direct questions about the festival to your teacher or visit the studio to sign your student up. Registration is due April 1 - No Exceptions will be made for late entrants, and space will be filled on a first-come-first-served basis for registration, which may be limited due to time and space constraints.
