TWO TSA ENSEMBLES SELECTED TO PERFORM AT OMEA CONFERENCE.

Two TSA instrumental groups have been named to perform at the 2009 Ohio Music Education Association Professional Conference:  The Percussion Studio (which encompasses the several percussion ensembles), and the Studio Orchestra (full/symphony orchestra) were tapped to showcase their talents at the annual gathering attended by thousands of music educators, administrators and icons of the music industry.

Performing groups are selected by competitive audition from among hundreds of applicants from all over the state of Ohio.  This year marks the third time in the last five years that TSA has been selected to have an ensemble perform at the state conference; this year also marks first time two performing groups from TSA have been selected in the same year- a rare event for any school.

The Percussion Studio is under the direction of Robert Desmond; the Studio Orchestra is under the direction of Jay Welenc and Diana Anderson, assisted by Robert Desmond.  The ensembles will perform at the 2009 OMEA Professional Conference in Columbus in January.
