EDUCATIONAL THOUGHTS
Welcome
(Photo) An amazing characteristic of music is in its diversity. It transcends age and culture and touches us all in many ways.

This edition of The Educator touches on teachers who address a variety of ages and cultures, and yet bring to us the universal character of music to communicate a sensibility of emotion.

We visit with Tara Bailey from the University of Southern California and find out how she uses the Roland C-30 Digital Harpsichord to help recreate Renaissance Music, with help from her early music ensemble “Natur.”

In a leap to the 21st Century, instructor and clinician Serena Mackey shows us how the gaming culture of our youth can have a positive affect on our teaching.

And in our “Meet the Clinician” section, we introduce to you our newest Roland Education Clinician, Leslie Gereghty. Not only a well-published educator and educational consultant, Leslie is also an educator whose spectrum of musical genres ranges from Rock to Jazz to Contemporary Worship.

With a little something for every musical taste and background, we know this is an issue you will want to save.

Enjoy,
Richard Schatz
Manager of Music Education
