Welcome Luis Gonzales!

MTMS is happy to announce Luis Gonzales will be joining our team. Luis will soon graduate from Ohio Wesleyan University in Music Education. He has been student teaching for music in a few local schools, so it’s possible you’ll recognize him. His primary instrument is Double Bass, and he’s familiar with orchestra instruments and ensembles from elementary to high school.

Please introduce yourselves as he integrates into our team!

Recital This Weekend!

This weekend is the recital at MTMS! We’re so excited to see everyone – and it is important to know that weather will not cancel this event. Prepare to be outside for good weather and to hear more details if the forecast changes. It’s going to be hot.

For our excited version – we’re going to have this recital outdoors. There will be games and activities. Be prepared for the heat- it might be above 90 degrees. Beach volleyball and beach bingo will be on the list of activities. Be ready to play dolphin ring toss and horseshoes. There will be prizes and a craft, too.

If you haven’t heard from MTMS by tomorrow, please contact us about your recital time. Practice and be ready for all the fun.

Welcome Abigail Voigt!

Michelle Tuesday Music School welcomes new receptionist Abigail Voigt to our staff. Abigail shares our love of music, starting with piano in childhood. She’s also been involved with her church choir and youth vocal instruction.

Abigail’s experience with music and teaching elementary school makes her a perfect fit for a point of contact within MTMS. She knows how things are supposed to work and she will be ready to communicate with everyone needed to keep all of us working together well.
