Students who are interested in receiving additional feedback on their playing may consider the new MTNA eFestival. Participants upload videos of their performances (up to fifteen minutes total) and receive written critique from an MTNA member. Ms. Combs is an adjudicator of this event, but if you enter, you will be assigned to a different reviewer, of course!
