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 2016! Mark your calendars for June 17-18, 2016! The workshop will provide opportunities to present and again feature a mini-workshop on teaching techniques for music theory and composition, featuring content not only for the new instructor, but also for those who want to brush up on or expand their theory and composition teaching techniques for the classroom. Long time MACRO members, please encourage your new colleagues to attend. The mini-workshop will take place on Friday morning, and our regular workshop will begin starting at noon with our traditional MACRO luncheon. 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. Submission deadline October 15, 2015. Contest guidelines for this year's competition are posted on our web site. Previous winners have really enjoyed this competition so apply now!
