The Recital is 18 Days Away

I do not like to worry people unnecessarily, but if you do not have a recital piece selected and practiced, you need to panic. The calendar is indicating that we have only 18 more days till the recital. Coming from a long line of clock watchers, "time is ticking away." As we are thinking of upcoming events, I am looking for at least 7 students, one in each grade 1-7, who would like to prepare and study for the World of Music quiz. I am new to this one myself, but think it could be fun and thought we would start with the first 7 grades. Would you like to do that? Also, if you took the theory test, would you like to do the ensemble? Students play a song with a group and then play that song for the TMTA convention in Grapvine in mid-June. Would you like that too? Trivia question of the week worth $2: What Christmas carol published in 1853 has the same tune as another carol, "Gentle Mary Laid Her Babe"? For an additional $1, what makes the title of this song a mistake?
