  • Choir, etc.?

    Since this is called the music Ed podcast, have you considered expanding to other aspects of music Ed? Maybe bringing on folks that can speak to that?

  • Good podcast!

    I really enjoy this podcast- James is very quick and to the point and he fits in a lot of information in a short amount of time. Worth a listen if you’re a band director.

  • Great for improving your skills and band program

    I've listened to about 10 of these so far, and I have gotten so many wonderful ideas that are helping me to improve my vision, my band program, and my daily skills. I am going to keep listening to all of them! James shares great ideas (which he admits have all been stolen from other band directors) in a very succinct manner, and has fantastic guest interviews as well.
