Wednesday, Apr. 14 Turning an Ordinary Studio Into an Extraordinary One

9:45am Social Time by Narciso Solero

10:00am Meeting Municipal Arts Center, 1119 5th St SW

By April of next year, we hope to have this meeting safely in person, so who better to have on this occasion than the President of VMTA, Narciso Solero, whose program last year was canceled due to COVID. This program explores how to turn dreams for your studio into reality through goal setting and implementing the steps to achieve those goals. Any topic is fair game: studio administration, professional development, repertoire building, how to achieve the highest level of artistry from your students. Teachers complete a survey in advance, submitting ideas for goals they would like to set but have yet to take significant action to achieve. “Impossible” goals will be examined as well, because achieving them usually involves having the courage to step out of our comfort zones and into a realm of possibilities we might never have dreamed of. Narciso received the Master of Music degree in Piano Performance from Indiana University School of Music and has an active teaching studio in Arlington, VA.
