Please make plans now to join us for the 2018 Fall Toot. For over forty years, we've been holding workshops and providing early music fun and learning for amateurs and aficionados alike! The Toot will be held once again at Lakeview Methodist Conference Center near Palestine, Texas. As always, it's the weekend before Thanksgiving — Nov 16 - 18, 2018.
Our popular Bring-a-Friend tuition discount — invite a first-time participant to come to the Fall Toot, and get a 20% discount on your tuition! Or bring back a former Tooter who's been gone 5 or more years, and get a 10% tuition discount. Share the fun, and save! There will be an Early Bird discount on tuition, too, if you register by October 18, so be sure to get your registration and deposit in as soon as possible.
Full faculty bios, as well as pricing information and other details, can be seen by clicking on the Fall Toot link on the left.

Dear RPW Enthusiasts:
We bring sad tidings: RPW 2018 has been cancelled. There are several reasons, which together left us no choice.
- Easter in 2018 is very early, limiting RPW to weekends before Feb. 14.
- Bill Mahrt is scheduled for surgery in January.
- We've not been able to secure a location for a January workshop.
- Historically, RPWs held in January have had low attendance (too soon after Christmas perhaps?).
We know you are all disappointed, but "long-timers" will recall that RPW was cancelled once before when Bill had a mild heart attack and could not travel. Therefore, we should all look forward to attending RPW 2019!
If you have questions about the Polyphony Weekend, please e-mail us: polyphony@toot.org
