About a month ago I posted a new resource I discovered that I recommend for music educators called FreeMusicEd.org. The podcast covers some great topics, such as iPad and iPhone apps for band directors, dealing with limited instrumentation, brass mouthpieces, marching band arrangements, and much more.
Stephan Cox, the brain behind FreeMusicEd.org invited me to come onto the podcast and interviewed me about a number of my favorite blogging topics, including teaching jazz improvisation, brass embouchures, teaching composition, and other odds and ends. It was a great time talking with Stephan and he was an excellent host who asked great questions. The podcast is now live and you can download it here or by searching for FreeMusicEd on iTunes (best to type it in as one word to find it easily). Be sure to go through and listen to his other podcasts and poke around the website some too!
Great to see another Music Ed Podcast out there. When I started mine, I couldn’t find any others. Mine is located at http://www.themusicedpodcast.com. If you think it’s worthwhile, it would be great if you spread the word.
