Innovations in Music Education

Presented by NAfME’s Council for Innovations, the Innovations in Music Education podcast explores groundbreaking approaches to music education that go beyond traditional ensembles, such as band, choir, and orchestra. Each episode highlights creative music courses and programs designed to engage students who might not otherwise participate in school music. From modern band and music production to songwriting, beat making, and culturally responsive teaching, the podcast showcases educators who are rethinking how music education can be more inclusive, relevant, and accessible.
