For the first six years of my career I taught instrumental music and music theory and always used technology a bit with my students – tech was my hobby at that time. Now, the roles have reversed with technology being what I do and music is a hobby. So I am always excited to hear the winners of the MENC/T+L Student Electronic Music Composition Talent Search. We were lucky enough a few years ago to have a student win in the middle school category which I know was very exciting for her and her parents. Take a listen to their compositions and read their stories below at:

Congratulations to all of them and encourage your music students and teachers to get involved with this program!
