Dear Parents of SSM and MCE,
WE DID IT ! We came out of the first locked down, zoom filled year of the pandemic, and adapted, adjusted, and kept the music flowing .
WE celebrated our 30 year anniversary with a concert featuring violinist Rachel Barton Pine.
We began our year in the MYArts building for group classes, nearly all of which were in person.
We formed a partnership with the Madison Cello Ensemble.
We welcomed new teachers and leadership roles.
WE had a very full calendar ( FULL LIST BELOW with photos)
Please fill out this electronic survey ( one for each child enrolled) to help us plan for 2022-23. Many thanks for sharing this year with us at SSM and MCE. Onward!
Enjoy reflecting and celebrating 30 years moving forward !
