DIGITAL ONLY CONTENT: Speak out! Five-and-a-half minutes with composer, pianist, teacher, and editor, Keith Porter-Snell

Keith-Porter-Snell
Keith, this column is generally reserved for composers , but you are much more than this as a pianist, composer, teacher, and editor. Which hat do you like best? That's a difficult question. I think of myself first as a pianist, but that's because it's the genesis for everything else I do. Teaching has been an inexhaustible fascination for me since...

Participants visited game stations, collected a "punch" for each game played, then traded a completed card for a prize. Piano Palooza grew out of a smaller event that Avon Lake (OH) teacher Lynette Gray fi...

DIGITAL ONLY CONTENT: Speak out! Five-and-a-half minutes with composer, Glenda Austin

Glenda Austin
What kind of composer are you?  I would say I am a "fly by the seat of my pants" composer. At least it's been that way for the last several years. It seems I have very little time to just sit down and compose. I teach general music in school, accompany several choirs and vocal lessons at the local University, and play weekly at a Methodist chu...

Lessons with (from) Kenya

Kenya
It started with a simple question. On an otherwise normal fall day a few years ago, I was introduced to Bilha Ayieko, a music teacher from Kenya who was visiting the University of Georgia. 1 Bilha came into my office and provided a little background about her music program at an Moi Girls' School, an all-girls' high school. 2 She was a vocalist by ...

We had been warned that the official translators were there to watch us closely, so I was caught off guard. "How is that?" I asked. "Because you are Rambo, and my American name is Rocky." As unexpected as it was to find Sylvester Stal...

DIGITAL ONLY CONTENT: Speak out! Five-and-a-half minutes with composer, Lynda Lybeck-Robinson

Lynda Lybeck-Robinson
I met Lynda on FaceBook about five years ago and life has brought us together in real life many times since. The harmony in her compositions is a refreshingly unexpected departure from much of the pedagogical literature, and my students (young and old) all know who Ms. Lynda is. She mentions " Coal Miner's Lullaby"  from Alaska ...
