Last week, I had the opportunity to attend the TI:ME National Conference in Louisville, Kentucky as a part of the first-ever TI:ME Leadership Academy. I was chosen as one of eight music education students to participate in this academy, and was blown away by the incredible ideas and conversations generated by participants and instructors alike.
After a 6.5 hour drive with Dr. Joseph Pisano, I am finally here! This year, the TI:ME (Technology Institute for Music Educators) Conference, held in conjunction with JEN (Jazz Education Network) is taking place in Louisville, Kentucky.
I have the privilege to attend the conference as a part of the TI:ME Leadership Academy.

While at the 2010 Midwest Clinic, I had the opportunity to talk to Peter Boonshaft and the folks at Alfred about their new beginning instrumental method book series, Sound Innovations. I did a full-length interview with Dr. Boonshaft about the project, and after almost a week of learning about and studying the method, here is my review. [Read more...]
