MusicEdMajor.net Welcomes a New Editor

It’s my pleasure to announce that MusicEdMajor.net now has a new co-editor! Please welcome Andy Ritenour, Music Education student at Grove City College in Grove City, PA. Andy comes to us as a student of Dr. Joseph Pisano, who was instrumental in getting me blogging to begin with. Andy is in Dr. Pisano’s Music Technology class, and has participated in the past few weeks’ #MusEdChat discussions. He also has just started a blog, Future Music Educators.

Andy is a Sophomore at GCC, and is extremely involved in ensembles, playing in two brass quintets, two concert bands, a symphony orchestra, and a touring choir. He also serves as a member of (and the librarian for) the Grove City College Wolverine Marching Band. Andy’s primary instruments are Tuba and Euphonium, and he also works as a marching and brass instructor for the Somerset Area High School Marching Band.

I am extremely excited to have Andy on the MusicEdMajor.net staff! Although referring to the two of us at the same time may be confusing (Andy and Andy…?), he brings a fresh set of ideas to the site, as well as a clear writing style and a passion for what he does. Be on the lookout for regular posts by both Andy’s right here at MusicEdMajor.net!

You can contact Andy Ritenour by email at andyr@musicedmajor.net, or on Twitter at @andrewritneour

    Great! I think that Andy (R) will do a great job for you! He is becoming quite Web 2.0 savvy! I'm thinking… Andy North and Andy South or for simul-anything Andy^2 (Andy Squared) :)

    How about “Insane Andy (Z) vs. Still-Somewhat-Normal Andy (R)”? I like the Andy Squared, though! We could really go somewhere with that :)

    I'm really excited to have Andy R on board; thanks for introducing him to the wonderful world of Web 2.0!
