navindra A trimester schedule allows for a more leisurely pace...
I think you probably mean semester schedule?
navindra The reality is that PT is still more in a support role to PW... there is no significant independent influx of participants.
Wouldn't it be as well the reason to schedule PT recitals differently from PW, so as to gain more autonomy and maybe attract that independent influx? What do you think?
navindra The current options:
...
- Trimester schedule.
Do you have already specific 3 months in mind for the trimester?
If we space them equally with a 4 month distance, one overlaps with PW-quarterly, one with PW-themed and one won't overlap.
- Event or Holiday based schedule.
I think this could be very confusing. Especially as this forum is not only used in the USA, but all over the world with different holidays and events.
navindra The PW Quarterly schedule is proven and allows participants to submit to both. This seems to have worked out, since we got 11 shared submissions.
On the other hand we have 18 submissions solely submitted here. 3 of them with different pieces in both forums and I am quite sure for those productive people, a different schedule would be a welcome bonus.
For 2024, I suggest to stick with the PW schedule and look at the stats again, and if we want to do a poll, wait for this.
Sgisela Indeed, I'm also interested in hearing feedback from folks on how this recital went and preferences on options listed.
Gooseberry Yes, for option 3 I meant quadrimester or 3 recitals in a year... with the next one being in December. Corrected the original post now.
Where would the independent influx come from? PT is not discoverable... in fact quite a few people from PW joined for the recital.

navindra I submitted a different piece to both recitals, and planned to do that ahead of time. My PT piece was ready enough a little earlier and recorded earlier than my PW piece. I plan to continue submitting to recitals in both forums, regardless of what schedule PT is on. I would have a small preference for them not to be in the same month, but I also don't think it would affect my participation in either place, so I'm not sure my preference counts for much! E.g. if they are in the same month, it might be I record something in the month before for one of them, if I don't think I would have two things ready enough in the same month. So it really doesn't have much impact for me, personally.
And I didn't realize the next one here is in November! My phone logged me out of PT and I couldn't remember my password so haven't been here for a while! Better get practicing and recording!
BicBic Thanks for the feedback! Overall, I do think for the long term we should move to a new schedule but we are not yet well-placed to change it.
Happy to hear any additional thoughts/feedback as well!
rsl12 Yeah! It comes by so quickly, I barely had time for a breather. 
I'm thinking we go ahead with a November recital at least to keep the rhythm going without shaking things up just yet. Eventually I think I'd like to move to a schedule where we can have a December recital.
It would be great to hear overall recital meta feedback from folks if you haven't had a chance to voice your opinion already. Consider it informal polling.
