This episode is directed toward high school students with the dream of pursuing music as a profession. That said, we believe this episode may also be helpful to parents of students thinking about music careers as well as band directors. To delve into this important topic, we are joined by Band faculty from Gustavus Adolphus College, Dr. James Patrick Miller and Dr. Heidi Johanna Miller.
