An Intermission Quiz focused on Music Theory, with emphasis on the Circle of Fifths, and students correctly answering the questions were rewarded with small prizes. The recital was held at 2 pm at the West Village Christian Church on Robertsville Road, and was followed by a reception hosted by Margaret Thew and Loretta Friend.

Music Arts is a nonprofit community music school with two dozen instructors in band and orchestral instruments, voice, piano, guitar and mandolin. Formed in 1983, the school offers scholarships to students who might not otherwise be able to afford lessons.
