WELCOME
PARENTS, GUESTS, AND MUSIC EDUCATORS
Warmest welcome to the 2019 Tennessee Music Education Association
All-State Performances.
While this event is an annual program for our state, many of the students you
will be hearing are participating in a Tennessee All-State Ensemble for the first
time. But whether it is a student’s first time or a return performance, it is a
unique experience that all students will carry with them for the rest of their
lives. These young people represent the future, not just in music but as leaders
of their communities and advocates for music in our schools.
These young musicians are the best from across the state. They have rehearsed
and practiced for years to get to this point in their lives. The teachers and
parents of these students are well aware that most of these students excel in
more than just music. They are strong academically, they are school leaders,
athletes, and volunteers. Indeed, they are the leaders of the next generation.
What you see on stage represents the finest in music instruction in Tennessee.
Hundreds of school music teachers, supported by their school administrators,
have spent countless hours organizing this program to provide the very best
musical experience possible in Tennessee. In addition to the dedicated and
hard-working staff and area chairs identified in this program, there are so many
others behind the scenes who have helped make these Tennessee All-State
Ensemble experiences possible.
To all of the families of these students, I’d like to thank you for what you’ve already
done to encourage your child’s musical pursuits. I also want to take a moment to
thank all of the music teachers for the nurture and care you show your students
every day. There is no way to measure the impact you have on these students.
I would also like to extend a special welcome to all of our special guests who are
joining us for these performances. The Tennessee Music Education Association
is so pleased to have you share in these musical experiences.
And last but certainly not least, I would like to extend my most sincere and
heartfelt congratulations to the accomplishments of all of the student members
of the Tennessee All-State Ensembles. I encourage you to thank your families,
your teachers, and your friends for all they have done for you. I wish all of you
the very best in your future endeavors.

Michael John Trotta, Conductor
Michael John Trotta is a composer, conductor, and clinician who draws on his
experience as an educator to create engaging and artistic music for thousands of
singers each year. His award-winning commissions are designed to provide conductors
solutions to problems they face on the podium every day, empowering choirs to get
the sound they have always wanted. He lives with his wife Rachel in Bay Head, NJ,
where he works as a full-time composer.
For fifteen years, Trotta served as a full-time choir director in settings ranging
from the elementary classroom, middle school and high school choir director,
and university director of choral activities, in addition to his work as a church
music director.
As a full-time composer, he works with over a thousand singers each year, and
has learned that many directors and conductors struggle with similar challenges.
Whether writing a major work for a Carnegie Hall premiere or a unison melody for a treble choir, Trotta crafts
music that balances the spirit of the text, the age and ability of the singers, the vision of the director, and the
ear of the audience
In the past few years, Dr. Trotta has conducted choirs in premieres of commissioned major works at Carnegie Hall,
and in Rome as well as had world premieres at TMEA, ACDA, and other conventions.
Tyler Merideth, Piano
Tyler Merideth has performed as an accompanist for Tennessee All-State choirs and the
Middle Tennessee Suzuki Association since 2005. Some other notable performances include
the International Church Music Festival in England, recitals with cellist Wesley Baldwin, tenor
Brad Diamond, masterclass with violin pedagogue Brian Lewis, and a musical theatre clinic
with the late Marvin Hamlisch.
Merideth holds both a B.M. in Church Music-Piano Performance (cum laude) and a M.M.
in Music Education-Conducting from Belmont University. Merideth has participated in the
Summer Dalcroze Institute at Carnegie Mellon, the Kodály Summer Program at Belmont
University and performed as a violist in a string quartet at the Virginia Suzuki Institute. He is
currently a member of MTSBOA, ASTA, and an alumni member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia.
