Tri-Lakes Music Association Ensembles

TLMA Expanded Ensembles survey

I really enjoy the people and the level of musicianship represented every year when the Tri-Lakes Music Association Christmas Concert preparations get underway. I believe that the Tri-Lakes area has a skilled and enthusiastic community of musicians that would be interested in being more active throughout the year. I know I am.
