Top three reasons to join the Utah Viola Society
- Viola Camaraderie. Viola nerds, viola geeks, alto clef readers unite! Imagine being in a group filled with fellow C-string lovers! Being part of a Viola Society is like being with people who understand you, with whom you can share friendly companionship and a sense of community. Violists share a unique bond; some of my oldest and dearest friends are my viola friends. (But don’t tell my french horn friends!)
- Utah Viola Society gives you lots of bang for your buck! We are truly a bargain. Your membership dues give you entrance to all Utah Viola Society events, including our signature Viola Day events, our Member’s Recital, and other masterclasses or presentations we have along the way. More than just offering events, we can also help you build relationships in the community. We can help you connect with other violists, assist in finding a viola teacher, introduce you to your next viola maker, and help you promote your recital or studio event.
- Membership helps us grow. Your membership allows us to bring fantastic guest artists who help us learn through their masterclass teaching and inspire us in their recitals. Thanks to your memberships, the Utah Viola Society has had amazing opportunities to bring great guests such as our recent masterclass guest Nokuthula Ngwenyama, and other viola luminaries like Roger Chase, Patricia McCarty, and James Dunham, just to name a few! Our members help us push ourselves to create bigger and better viola events, and help us create the kind of society we want to be!
Bonus reason: ALTO CLEF COOKIES.
You can renew or join online, or send a check. We also have a group rate, so you can sign up your entire viola studio or orchestra viola section at a discount! You can also sign up at the door on Saturday, October 14, VIOLA DAY! We will take cash, check, and credit card. (But you might save time standing in line if you join early!) You don’t even have to be a violist to join, it’s enough if you love the viola or love a violist!
Viola Day 2017 is right around the corner. Thank you to everyone who has already renewed their memberships. We are looking forward to meeting new friends, sharing stories with old friends, and learning from this year’s featured guest artist, Peter Slowik. We hope you’ll consider joining or renewing your Utah Viola Society membership today!
