Facilities age and new schools are built. If you are a band director fortunate enough to be faced with new construction or renovations what so you do? Who do you turn to for information? Our two guests today have firsthand knowledge of the process. This conversation will provide you a check-list of things to do or think about for renovations or new construction of music facilities.
Tark Katzenmeyer has taught for 18 years in both Minnesota and Florida, with teaching experience at the Middle School Level and the High School Level. He has directed the bands at Woodbury High School for seven academic years. An advocate of chamber music, Tark has done extensive research of effective implementation of chamber music into a high school band program, and believes in the power of small group musicianship. An active performer, Tark has played performances with the Minnesota Symphonic Winds, the Bloomington Medalist Concert Band, the Florida Wind Band, the Southern Winds, the VanderCook College of Music Jazz Ensemble, and various chamber music organizations.
