64. The "Coulds" and Possibility for Change with Evan Tobias

Choir Baton

In this conversation we talk about participatory culture and how it relates to adjustments and rethinking the music curriculum.
Evan Tobias is Associate Professor of Music Learning and Teaching at Arizona State University where he heads the Consortium for Innovation and Transformation in Music Education citme.asu.edu. He is also Director of ArtsWork: The Kax Herberger Center for Children and the Arts, which forwards arts and design programming, education, and research in relation to young people. Evan's teaching, creative work, and research are animated by the question: How might we make a positive impact on society through musical engagement, learning, and inquiry? At times of rapid change, even open-minded music educators can feel stuck or seek guidance for adjusting the status quo. Evan helps people imagine possibilities for music learning and teaching so they can update, expand, or transform music programs to better support young people and make a positive impact in the world.
