This TVOMTA District event is intended to encourage and inspire students interested in music from any religion. Specifically sacred music, or any music that would be appropriate for some part of a worship service, can be performed. It is unique in that students do NOT have to memorize their piece and is the only festival of its type in the state. The Sacred Recital will occur in odd numbered years.

The Pop Festival is open to any TVOMTA member's students playing non classical and generally untraditional music from jazz, rock, praise, latin, and other idioms. Music and lead sheets may be used and more than one performer (ensemble) is welcome, however setup needs to happen in the space of very few minutes so no amplification is possible due to on/off time constraints. Registration fee is for each performance, not per student. This festival occurs in even numbered years.

OMTA Syllabus is a music curriculum which covers technique, theory, rhythm reading, sight reading, and leveled repertoire. The ten levels increase in difficulty to challenge students and help set goals. Students have the option of being evaluated on any of the levels. Master teachers are available fall and spring to critique the specifics of any level or to hear a Creative Audition. For every 4 students evaluated, we suggest the teacher schedule a conference follow-up with the adjudicator.
