Help us to continue expanding our musical offerings and learning resources with a donation!
We know you understand that culture work, whatever the art form, is often hard work. When you donate to artists and arts organizations, you are not only helping to support individual artists in their work, you're sending a strong message that you recognize the value of creativity and the importance of a vibrant culture.
The Music Learning Page
This is the place where I put resources for learning about music and music-related topics: Some I have found, and others that I have created. There is material here that relates directly to work with current students, as well as stuff I think might be generally useful, and some stuff that I think is just fascinating and fun. Music is a vast subject. I love exploring as many rabbit-holes as I can, and sharing what I find.
All of this material is available to you always. It is also the result of ongoing labor (a labor of love, but labor nonetheless). Please consider chipping in (Then after you consider, please do chip in!).
