What do you think of the next President of MMTA, Sue Krebsbach, and President Elect, Kirsten Levorson? Are they jailed? Actually they are just selling tickets at the state Honors Concert at Northrop Auditorium, which took place Saturday, May 30.Minnesota Music Teachers Association was organized on June 27, 1901 under the auspices of the Professional League of St. Paul, and is affiliated with the Music Teachers National Association. It was organized to "promote the true culture of music by the interchange of ideas, to advance the interest of musical art, and to foster professional fraternity." Active members were professional teachers of voice, musical instruments, or "any subject pertaining to the theory of music." In the season of 1928-1929 MMTA began sponsoring a concert by student winners chosen in a statewide competition. In 1936 the MMTA developed a program of ten-piano concerts, given by winners of regional piano tryouts. The Ten-Piano Concert evolved into twelve, then twenty pianos, and later became the State Honor Student Concert or Honors Concert.
