State or National Events - We will keep students informed of events for the organizations below:
National Federation of Music Clubs National Federation of Music Clubs Junior Festival is held between January and March each Spring. Entrants play a compositions from memory before a Federation judge and receive rating,certificate, and gold cup points which may be applied to a trophy award over a minimum of 3-year participation. Piano categories are solo piano, duet piano,piano concerto, and trio piano. The National Federation of Music Clubs Festivals program is designed to promote study, stimulate interest in American and world music literature, and encourage each participant to reach a high standard of musical achievement. It is not a competition, but an opportunity to perform and receive evaluation. Palm Coast Music Club - the Notes Piano Club participates in above activities. Our students were graded in 2011 and 2012 "Superior". Congratulations students (Connie and Emily)!
National Guild of Piano Teachers The National Guild of Piano Teachers are the largest nonprofit organization of piano teachers and students in the world. Students prepare a program of one to twenty memorized solo pieces and perform privately before a Guild judge. Students may also choose to play with music that is not memorized as a “hobbyist.” The auditions are held in May. They receive a report card, rating, certificate of membership in the National Fraternity of Student Musicians, and Fraternity pin.
