About the Clubs

• Teachers invite their adult students at the home of a host, to an informal gathering where they can perform the repertoire of their choice in a friendly atmosphere.

• There are two clubs: (1) Beginners & Intermediate performers; (2) Advanced performers (Grade 8 RCM and up).

• Admission is free. Guests each bring a plate to share to eat after the recital.

• Participants must be comprised exclusively of friend members or students of current active or provisional QMTA members.

• Reservation is required.

• Having an overwhelming end-of-year?
• Not enough students to organize a concert of your own?
• Wishing your students had more performing opportunities? 

This event is for you. Parents and teachers can come to cheer our young musicians at the Spring Recital.
