Michigan Music Association was founded in 1967 as a non-profit,
educational organization to perpetuate through high standards an
annual competition for students in the state of Michigan. Its goals are
to provide the public the opportunity to hear students in competition,
to uphold a high standard in music education, provide a public outlet
for the artistic talent of music students, and most importantly to help
students gain the experience and confidence to develop their musical
talents.
Past Presidents of MMA include: Al Dame, Terry Breese, Joyce Lucido,
Nancy Lathem, Kevin Sayers, and Georgette Sarzyenski.
MMA has come a long way since its inception. In the early years,
competitions were held at local schools, Macomb Community
College, and the Italian Cultural Center where you would find the
board cooking "green" hot dogs and serving refreshments to the
participants.
More recently, our competitions have been held in Lansing, Grand
Rapids, and Kalamazoo where there is no cooking done by board
members. You will find restaurants readily available and a luncheon
served before the awards ceremony.
The future of MMA is also something to look forward to. The website
with contest information, forms to download, standard lists
displayed, scholarships, workshops.... is thriving!
Thanks to everyone supporting MMA and the arts.
