Music Educators Association of New Jersey
Serving teachers and students since 1927
Brilliant! Fantastic! Sparkling! are just some of the words that describe the 2020 Honors Recital performances. For the first time ever, video auditions were held for this November event. Students submitted two videos in which they performed pieces from two different musical periods. Six judges working in pairs evaluated the performances via YouTube links provided by the students. Out of 70 submissions (140 videos), the judges awarded Honors to 61 talented soloists! That means that both pieces submitted received the highest grade and were deemed performance-ready.
MEA is proud to present three gorgeous video recitals, showcasing the outstanding performances of this year’s Honors Recital winners—now available for all to view and enjoy. Seventeen MEA teachers participated and the videos have been arranged so that all students of a particular teacher are featured in one video recital. The performances reflect the stellar musicianship and dedication to excellence by teachers and students alike.
Congratulations to the students, their teachers and parents, and to everyone who made these Honors Recitals a success!
