Description

How might general music fit into a high school music curriculum? Do all music programs reflect the student population of schools? If you are curious about these questions, or just want to hear more about these topics and more, then this episode of Band in Minnesota is for you!

Sarah Minette (BME, University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, MAME, University of St. Thomas, and PhD, Arizona State University) is a music educator at Minneapolis South High School and adjunct faculty at the University of St. Thomas, St. Paul, MN. Sarah’s 16 year career includes teaching middle school band, jazz band, marching band, and most recently, secondary general music. At the University of St. Thomas, Sarah teaches graduate and undergraduate music education classes. Sarah was recently awarded a Music Education Innovator grant from the Give a Note Foundation for her work at South High that focuses on providing as many music making opportunities for students as possible.


Sarah’s research interests include gender and sexuality in music education, access and equity in music education, and secondary general music education. Sarah has presented her research at local and national venues, including the National Association for Music Education Research Conference, the Feminist Theory and Music Conference, the MayDay Colloquium, the International Conference on Narrative Inquiry, the Society for Music Teacher Education Symposium, and the New Directions Conference. Sarah was recently appointed as the secondary music education chair of the Minnesota Music Educators Association and serves as the equity chair for the Minnesota Band Directors Association.  Additionally, Sarah is in demand as a guest presenter to undergraduate music education classes as well as graduate classes to share her teaching experiences as well as her research.

We discuss band and music education - but try to keep it light and fun. It's a "slice of life" from the perspective of a couple high school band directors in Minnesota. Basically, life lessons for musicians and non-musicians alike. So while it's all about band, and totally not about band at all. Hosted by Bradley Mariska and Erin Holmes (Farmington High School), with our colleague and friend Jerry Luckhardt (University of Minnesota).
