Dear MACRO members,

It's time to welcome all of you to another year of teaching, welcome all new members of MACRO, and to once again remind you of everything MACRO has to offer:

Musician's Workshop 2013! IMPORTANT NOTE, due to scheduling issues at the Monona Terrace, our format for 2013 will be slightly different than that of previous years. Instead of our typical 'day plus a half day' schedule we will meet for ONE DAY ONLY, on Saturday June 22nd from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. You should of course plan to attend for our usual camaraderie and great teaching ideas, but this schedule change means that we will also be able to provide both our famous Monona Terrace lunch AND a new dinner for participants! It's not too early to start thinking about topics and potential presentations for the event! Contact Jamie Henke at any time via email jhenke@dcs.wisc.edu
Come join us for a fun-filled collaborative learning experience like no other!

Check out our latest Truman State University/MACRO Composers competition. Contest guidelines for this year's competition are posted on our web site. Previous winners have really enjoyed this competition so apply now!
