#008 – In today’s interview with Dr. Keith Todd, we discuss the adventures, challenges, and changes in the field of music education over the course of his 33 year career in Yukon and B.C.
His lifelong commitment to music education, along with his willingness to share his passion for music with members of the communities he’s lived in, permeates throughout our discussion. He’s clearly woven himself into the musical fabric of The Yukon and has nurtured all musicians under his tutelage to become the best performers they can be. He’s motivated and inspiring both youth ( at the highschool level ) and adults ( in the community bands ) to push the envelope on their chosen instrument and create memorable musical moments to reflect upon in their later years.
No stranger to the “side hustle” of landing jazz, funk, big band and recording sessions for other musicians, Todd will certainly be one of the first call musicians in both Nelson and Yukon in years to come. His current trajectory is to reconnect with musicians in Nelson upon his retirement, but I’m sure to see him up in the Yukon as well.
