We are pleased to offer fellow EMTA studios and students the opportunity to perform
within the chapter. Instrumentalists and vocalists, as well as pianists, are welcome to
perform. Ensemble playing is allowed. Pieces do not have to be memorized, and there is
no formal dress required. There is no cash deposit required; however, teachers are
required to be EMTA registered members. These exciting recitals will be held at Almost
Famous (12345 NE 116th St) in Kirkland at 4:30-6:30pm on the following Sundays.

Reservation of performance Spots at the recitals is on a first come, first served basis, but teachers who have not previously participated in the EMTA Student Recitals will be given priority. Each teacher can reserve up to 15 minutes of time for the total repertoire. If the recital reservation is full, the request will be placed on the waitlist.

All Performers and Teachers are required to participate and listen to the entire recital. All shall arrive at the venue before 4:45pm and finish confirming their name and age no later than 4:55pm. There is no late arrival, early dismissal, and absence for the performance. Failing to attend fully will result in disqualification for participating in later recitals for one year. 

During the Performance: Students shall announce their names and pieces to the audience, and bow before and after their playing. Audience must stay quiet without talking and walking to respect the on-stage performance. Teachers are responsible for handling their students’ behaviors.
