Music Education Memoirs is a podcast I created in October 2023 in response to the #ChallengeForChange call to action. In many educational institutions around the globe, school music programs are underfunded and are in danger of elimination.
Through this podcast, I share stories of how participation in school music programs has benefited and even transformed students at that moment and/or provided a foundation or skill that they have recognized to be beneficial later in life. My Challenge for Change is to support these crucial programs by sharing stories of stories of impact.
Episodes are published biweekly and are typically between seven to ten minutes in duration, consumable during a short commute or a lunch break.
Although these stories relate specifically to music, listeners might find transfers that might be applicable to other areas of study. Please share this project with others who might benefit from listening. The more ears that hear these stories, the more advocacy we can build for important educational programs, specifically music in this case.

Hi Donald
Congratulations! What a great initiative and an area which most certainly would benefit greatly from a call to action. As someone who has grown up learning and playing music, it doesn't feature enough in my teaching practice. I am looking forward to listening to the podcast and gaining insight from these stories of impact.
