Arch Cup

studio recitals

The Arch Cup was founded by Caroline Hixson and is open to students from Saint Louis studios. Students of all ages play one memorized piece for a judge. Each student will receive adjudication comments and a rating (Gold, Silver, Bronze). Depending on the rating students may receive a trophy, ribbon, or certificate.

studio recitals

studio recitals

studio recitals

K-12 students perform in two recitals per year. Recitals are very rewarding and are a wonderful opportunity to show off for friends and family. Performance classes are offered prior to recitals for students to play for each other and get acclimated to performing. All K-12 students must participate in both recitals.


Adult students participate in two ‘get-togethers’ per year. These are designed to be low-key events in which students can perform prepared pieces for other adult students.

RALLY
