September 2022 High Notes

JMTA High Notes
September 2022—Vol. 26, no. 1
General Meeting and Potluck (at Keyboard Connection, also available on Zoom):
September 14, 2022: 9:30am - General meeting and Overview of JMTA Activities
11:00am - Potluck
_____________________________________________________________________________
From the President’s Pen:
 
Welcome back from your travels around the country, across the seas or just through books in your own backyard. Our music journals and resources in public libraries offer us endless options to learn about different subjects – people, cultures, places as well as a chance to look within ourselves.
 
MTNA President, Karen Thickstun speaks of Meaningful Participation in the opening article of the Aug/Sept issue of AMT.  She states that “Our collective personal stories and perspectives impact how we move forward as an association.” We have an opportunity to share some of those stories in September at our first meeting.  We all share the joy of music-making and teaching our art, but the paths we’ve taken to do that and the experiences we’ve had along the way make us unique. Let’s celebrate those differences and as Karen says, “make a space where everyone feels like they belong, where they can have a voice, share their story and meaningfully participate.”
 
Before our September meeting would you take time to contact someone who has not been active in JMTA for the past couple of years and invite them to our Potluck event. We want to include recent college grads as well.  They may not know that they can participate on zoom if they cannot attend the meetings. Let them know. The more we reach out and connect to fellow teachers in the area, the stronger our association will be.
 
Be sure to check out the plans for our opening meeting.  All the activities offered through JMTA will be introduced with follow-up information available. (See the newsletter for further details.)
 
Just a little food for thought from Christine Whitlock’s Podcast – Beyond Measure - We are building relationships with our students.  We need them to trust us, to respect us. Do we ask ourselves what our student’s takeaway is from the lesson this week.
 
I look forward to seeing each of you in September!
 
Anita

JMTA STUDENT ACTIVITIES FOR 2022-2023
JMTA has many musical and academic opportunities during the school year for our students to participate in and to grow musically. Here is an overview of each, and they will be presented at our upcoming September meeting.

JMTA Student Recitals
 
One of the benefits of JMTA membership is the ability to have students perform in one of our public recitals.  This is a great opportunity especially for a teacher who may have a few students that would be able to perform, but perhaps not enough students to plan and execute a recital of just your studio.  JMTA does all the work for you!  We secure a location, print the programs, and host a reception (if constraints allow).  Specific guidelines are posted on the website, but here are the main points:
  • You may enter 4-5 students of any level; total performance time no longer than 15 minutes
  • You must be able to assist at the recital
  • A $5 fee per student entered is payable to JMTA before the start of the recital
However, a big hurdle we face is finding performance locations.  We need your help with this so we can continue to provide this fantastic benefit to you and your students!  If you have connections with a location that has a piano in good working condition, please see if they would be willing to host a recital.  All we need from them is the space, seating, and a piano.  They do not need to provide or accommodate for anything else.
If you have a location that would be willing to host us, please contact Recitals Co-Chair Lorraine Sears at jaxpeach13@gmail.com to discuss.
 
View the link for more info (new dates TBA): https://www.jaxmta.org/jmta-student-recitals.html
 
There is also an annual Community Recital held in April, for late-intermediate to advanced students only (new date TBA):
https://www.jaxmta.org/community-proton-therapy-recital.html

FSMTA District IV Sonatina and Sonata Festival

This District IV Festival is held annually at the UNF Fine Arts Center Recital Hall, and is founded and chaired by Dr. Erin Bennett.

Students perform a movement of a Sonatina or Sonata in a recital setting before an adjudicator. The Sonatina or Sonata can be by any composer from the Classical Era onwards; contemporary or pedagogical Sonatina/Sonata composers are welcomed. The adjudicator provides a written evaluation of the performance. It is $15 for students of FSMTA members or $25 for students of non-member teachers.
 
View the link for more info (new dates TBA): https://www.jaxmta.org/district-4-sonatina--sonata-festival.html
 
FSMTA District IV Concerto Competition

Held annually in the spring, the District IV competition is chaired by Dr. Erin Bennett. Students can compete in one of four levels: Elementary, Junior, Intermediate, or Senior, in one of the following instruments: Piano, Voice, Woodwinds, Strings, Brass, Percussion, or Organ.
Per the Florida State Music Teachers website: “​The FSMTA Concerto Competition is a two-stage competitive event. All applicants must first apply and compete at a District level. District Concerto winners (with the exception of the Elementary category) are obligated to represent their districts and compete in the State Concerto Competition.”  
The cost is $40 for students of FSMTA members, and $80 for students of non-member teachers ($40 for student and $40 for teacher). If the student advances to the state level competition, there is an additional $40 application fee for FSMTA members, $80 for non-members.
View the link for more info (new dates TBA): https://www.jaxmta.org/district-4-concerto-competition.html

FSMTA District IV Student Day

​Held annually in the spring, District IV Student Day is chaired by Angie Holt. Student Day is one of the most structured and comprehensive music evaluation programs and gives students a great sense of accomplishment. There are three areas of testing:
1. The Performance Audition: Takes place before an adjudicator and is graded on:
  • The performance of 2 to 3 pieces, depending on the level
  • Technique: scales, arpeggios and other skills
  • Keyboard theory, harmonization and transposition
  • Musicianship and sight reading (one bonus point for the latter)
2. Written Theory Exam:
  • Students in Levels Primary through 12 take their written examinations in an assigned area. They work at their own pace and may leave as soon as they have finished.
​3. Aural Theory Exam:
  • Students are tested in groups, in levels 1 through 12.
If students receive an Achievement in the Performance Audition and at least an Achievement in Written and Aural Theory, they receive a beautiful certificate and a medallion. If they receive an Honors in the Performance Audition and at least an Achievement in Written and Aural theory, they receive a certificate, a medallion, AND an Honors medal from the State. The cost to enroll is $30 per student at all levels.

Honors Recital: If a Student receives an Honors in the Performance Audition and at least an Achievement in Written and Aural Theory, they will be invited to performance in the Honors Recital, typically held a few weeks later, wearing concert dress.
 
To Get Started: For more info and for the application form (not due until spring 2023), go to our website or use this link (new dates TBA): https://www.jaxmta.org/district-4-student-day.html
For the Written, Aural, and Performance audition information, go to FMTA.org or use this link: https://www.fmta.org/fsmta-non-competitive-events.html  You’ll need the FMTA password of Mozart. Please email me with any questions at angiespianostudio7@gmail.com.
You may want to get started soon in preparing your student(s).
NOTE: An independent teacher in Florida has created a curriculum to help you prepare your students for the keyboard skills, written, and aural theory testing mentioned above. The guidelines follow the requirements provided in your Student Activities Handbook. I use it with my students and it has been very helpful. Contact Sue Colvert (Music Masters) at jwcsr@aol.com.

JMTA Community Service Awards
 
The Jacksonville Music Teachers Association participates in the Community Service Awards program, which is chaired by Joan Cordell. These awards are given to deserving 9th and 12th grade students in recognition of their leadership, achievements, and service to the community in the field of music. The applicants must also be students in good standing with their music instructor, a member of JMTA who recommends them for this award.

Ninth graders apply for the Local and District President's Community Service Award and may count their music activities from summer before seventh grade through fall of ninth grade. Twelfth graders apply for the FSMTA Community Service Award for 12th Graders and may count their music activities from spring of ninth grade through fall of twelfth grade. Prospective applicants are encouraged to keep a journal of their music participation so they can document their community music involvement in ninth and twelfth grades when they are ready to apply for the Community Service Award.

This award encourages young musicians to use their music talents and skills within their community for the betterment of the community and society as a whole. It also helps them become more responsible and caring citizens as they reach out to others through their music activities. Winning at the county level, the student receives a certificate and a plaque, which is an honor that can be placed on future college or employment applications. The ninth grade state winner receives a plaque and $100.00, while the twelfth grade state winner also receives a plaque and $500.00.
Each county in District 4 is eligible to have a ninth and twelfth grade representative, so let’s strive to have plenty of county winners that could compete at the state level!
View this link for more info (new dates TBA): https://www.jaxmta.org/community-service-award.html
 
JMTA High School Senior Scholarship Competition   

The JMTA High School Senior Scholarship Competition is chaired by Kamila Shahtakhtinski, NCTM, Chair of Scholarship Committee, and will be held in March of 2023, date and location TBA. If there is only one applicant, auditions will be held online. Auditions will be open only to students who have studied for six or more months with a JMTA member in good standing and who state their intention to pursue a college degree in Music.
Students seeking a dual major in Music and another field of study are eligible to apply.
Three letters of recommendation, applicant’s repertoire list of three pieces from different time periods with a duration no longer than 30 minutes, along with the signed application form and the fee of $25 must be sent to Kamila by the date TBD. Repertoire must be memorized.
The winner of the Scholarship Competition will be required to perform at a future JMTA function, TBA.
View this link for more info: https://www.jaxmta.org/high-school-senior-scholarship-competition.html
 
JMTA Summer Music Camp Scholarship

The JMTA Summer music camp scholarship is chaired by Kamila Shahtakhtinski, NCTM, Chair of Scholarship Committee, and is awarded annually only to pre-college students of JMTA members. The deadline for application is March 27, 2023. Scholarship may be awarded in full or partially. Students who receive scholarships may attend the summer camp of their choice. Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of need. Only one scholarship per family may be awarded. Students who receive money for summer camps from other organizations are not eligible to receive assistance from JMTA. Teachers must submit a short outline of their students’ qualifications for scholarship along with their name(s) to the JMTA Scholarship Committee for consideration by the JMTA board.

DISTRICT IV NEWS
 
2023 District IV Student Day
District IV Student Day is being planned for a Saturday in April of 2023, TBA.
To start preparing your students, you can go to FMTA.org or use this link: https://www.fmta.org/fsmta-non-competitive-events.html. You’ll need the FMTA password of Mozart. Please don’t hesitate to email me with any questions you may have at angiespianostudio7@gmail.com.
 
If you would like curriculum for your students that matches the Student Day requirements, an independent teacher in Florida has created a curriculum to help you prepare your students for the keyboard skills, written, and aural theory testing.* (For the Primary level there is no aural theory.) I use the curriculum with my students and find it has been very helpful. To order, contact Sue Colvert (Music Masters) at jwcsr@aol.com with your name and address and the levels you would like, and she will mail them to you with the invoice.
(Music Masters, 954-752-2856, 4111 NW 79 Ave, Coral Springs, FL 33065)
 
For Levels Primary and 1, two original pieces will need to be memorized. For Levels 2 through 12, three original pieces will need to be memorized. From Levels 5 and up, the three pieces will each need to be in a different musical era. Please let me know if you have any questions about the acceptability of a piece. There is also the suggested repertoire list on the FMTA website, though you are not required to use this.
 
* An example of the Music Masters curriculum, as well as a Student Day certificate, medallion, and State medal, will be on display at the September meeting.

Did you know?
 
Residents of Duval county, if they have a Jacksonville Library card, can use the many electronic resources from the https://jaxpubliclibrary.org/digital-library. Getting a library card is free. All that's needed is your driver's license and sign up in person at any of the 21 branches.
 
The card allows the use of Kanopy - which has free streaming movies, documentaries, educational resources [older teens/adults]. I saw a documentary "Making the Grade" which profiled Irish students and piano teachers whose students are preparing to take the Irish Royal Academy of Music Examinations. It was funny, moving, informative, and relatable, especially seeing snippets of the teacher's lessons in action and how the students feel about piano and their teachers overall. I highly recommend members watch it (and explore the other resources available from JPL)!
