Lori Ardovino, HED President Greetings Music Educators,Many thanks to those of you who teach the students who participated in the All-State Ensembles. We are fortunate to have these dedicated and talented students that are motivated to make wonderful music. This is all due to the skillful teaching of their directors and to their private instructors. You are their incentive and inspiration. As we wind down this spring semester, many of you will be involved with summer teaching and research projects. In the planning of your projects, don’t forget that it is not too early to be thinking about the 2014 AMEA Conference. The Call for Sessions, Performance Applications and Lobby Performance applications are now available on the AMEA website. Deadline for submitting proposals for the 2014 AMEA Conference is June 1. I highly encourage everyone to submit proposals in all areas. Last year we were represented very well and it would fantastic to see even more participation by the Higher Education Division. Please remember that in order to submit a proposal for a session or performance, the clinician must be a member of NAfME/AMEA. In addition to sessions and performances, please consider submitting a poster for the Poster Session. Dr. Jane Kuehne, Auburn University will once again head up this Call for Posters. The Higher Education Recital was a success this past year with more attendance than usual. I will be coordinating this recital so if you are interested, please contact me via email with your proposal. At the end of this year, there will be openings for President, President-Elect, and Secretary/Treasurer positions in the Higher Education Division. There will be a scheduled business meeting at the 2014 Conference so we may elect new officers. If you are interested and would like to be considered for an office, please email your interest in serving or if you know of someone who would make a great representative for the division, please submit their name. My address is ardovinl@montevallo.edu. Please consider serving as an officer. Have a productive and enriching summer! |
