Chris Sanders, KORG Studio Sound Reinforcement Expert - After years around school installs, training, and support calls, one pattern stands out: strong results come from a few smart moves done in the right order.

Sharon Selinger, Band Program Director, Music Production Teacher, Digital Music Librarian at Pine Crest School, FL - When I think about great leaders, I think about the commitment they’ve made to do better, be better, and to keep on keeping on until they’re happy with the outcome. It’s that same perseverance, drive, and determination I’ve found in myself.

Dr. Jim Frankel, Founder and Director, MusicFirst - Every once in a while, I ask myself “What If?” questions. For me, this question spurs most of my creative thinking.

By Dr. Frank Machos, Vice President & Director of the Mann Center Institute for Creative Arts and Community Impact, Philadelphia, PA - The music that students create in many of today’s classrooms looks a lot more like the music they enjoy outside of it. For a long time, this wasn’t the case.

Franklin J. Willis Director of Visual and Performing Arts, Metro Nashville Public Schools, TN - For more than a decade, my greatest joy was standing in front of a classroom of elementary music students, watching their eyes light up as they discovered their own musical gifts.

By Dr. James Weaver, Director of Performing Arts and Sports, NFHS - Walk into any American high school gymnasium, auditorium, or stadium, and you’ll see the heartbeat of our communities - students performing, competing, and connecting.

With educators facing increasing demands on their time and resources, it was exciting to see such enthusiasm for tools and ideas that are both accessible and impactful. The sessions sparked great conversations, and it was truly rewarding to connect with fellow music educators who are committed to evolving their practice and inspiring their students.
