Hello #musicteachers and #musiceducators, I am working on a presentation, and I am curious how you would answer this statement:

My grades in music class in high school were _________ in my choosing to become a music teacher.

A. Pivotal
B. Somewhat important
C. Not a factor

[David Getz @dave_getz]

@KnoxMcCoy @OUAchievers As the NBA is tiptoeing towards adding expansion teams, what if Adam Silver drops a rule that the first two players chosen for these new teams must be professional athletes from sports other than basketball…who are your first two picks and why?

[David Getz @dave_getz]

Thanks to @robbyburns for giving me a shoutout! I hope this helps at least one other music teacher realize grades in the music classroom are a foreign plant that was transplanted from another forest.

I’d be curious, other #teachers…what do you do to cultivate a creative atmosphere in your classroom?

In addition, my first book, "Unlocking Student Creativity through Composition," is now available through @fflatbooks. In the book, I talk about how the Composers' Guild was established and how anyone can get started on their own musical composition journey. Check it out!

[David Getz @dave_getz]

Tomorrow is a big day! The #composersguild is celebrating our 10th Anniversary Student Composition Recital by featuring 7 new student compositions (plus 1 special alumni composition!) performed by 4 elite, doctorate-level performers!

If you enjoy #newmusic, you will want to check it out. The event will be livestreamed on our website, https://t.co/Ks1FMMrKVy, at 6:00pm CST.

[David Getz @dave_getz]

@TonyManfredonia Amen! This is why I equate learning to compose with building legos. Some kids will naturally move on to building complex models (music theory), but anyone can have a lifelong joy of Legos simply by making patterns themselves. The point is…just keep playing!

[David Getz @dave_getz]

Thanks for the nice words!
