#37: Student Connection as the Foundation of Music-Making | With Mike Lunney 53:15

منذ 25 weeks53:15

53:15

Have a guest recommendation? Let us know! Welcome to the first episode of Beyond the Measure - Season 2! Many of us get so caught up in creating music that we forget that we are actually creating leaders. Student leadership and connection is the foundation of everything else we do in the classroom, and our success as a group depends on it. The goal, therefore, is to make the group greater than the sum of its parts. Teaching the music is easy, but having the students work well together is hard. So how do we do it? We are so excited to welcome our very first guest of the season, Mr. Mike Lunney, who is a retired band director that now spends his time mentoring music teachers. In this episode, Mike emphasizes the importance of connecting students together regardless of background, and how it makes the difference between "average" and "extraordinary."

Have a guest recommendation? Let us know! Being in a profession like music education comes with a lot of scrutiny. This can cause a lot of stress on us and make us afraid to be truly vulnerable - and not just with other people, but with ourselves.
