What Are People Saying?

  • Through workshops, student recitals, competitions and conventions, ORMTA has helped expand my knowledge as a teacher and allowed my students to grow and learn in a safe environment. I have forged lasting friendships and have received lots of support and encouragement in my teaching career.

  • ORMTA has offered many wonderful opportunities that I definitely wouldn't have gotten otherwise like scholarships, masterclasses and other events. One of my favourite projects was the composition competition where we got to submit a composition to an adjudicator. It was amazing to receive personal feedback from a professional composer.
