  • How to teach Pop when you’ve only even known Classical?

    There is increasing pressure on music programs to include popular music genres however arguably the biggest stumbling block to this is us. The teachers!

    Sadly most of us studied classical genres in our school and university life and many of us continue to pursue these genres in our leisure time. It therefore comes naturally to us to run music ensembles based on our own experiences but we are less likely to encourage and foster ensembles that take us out of our sphere of comfort.

    Yet, whilst the ensemble programs we run are certainly valuable, they are often taken up by the most privileged students whilst popular music education advocates seek to create a broader audience and include marginalised perspectives.
