Day 2 at Midwest—A few years ago, a student passed our booth and recognized our awards from his school. He remarked, “I didn’t know that was a job!”

We were streaming episodes of The Resident, which ran for six seasons on Fox. Out of nowhere, a fake tv doctor mentioned winning the Sousa award. It seemed more realistic than some of the medical stories on the show.

There are many things in the August/September Instrumentalist to make you smile. This article by Ari Contzius and Nikki Redeker and four remarkable student composers at Washingtonville High School (NY) was so much fun to put together! https://theinstrumentalist.com/uncategorized/four-students-make-their-mark-indelible-lessons-in-composing-conducting-and-life/

"Directors have a unique position because in other classes, students have a different teacher every year. We are the one constant in their lives. We can make the greatest impact because year after year they trust their band director. We have an obligation to see them through the most transformative period of their lives. We are there with them." Roosevelt Griffin III in the April/May 2023 issue https://theinstrumentalist.com/april-may-2023/finding-strength-in-everybody/

No matter how many times kids have tried to learn, Louie Burrel can turn them into confident riders quickly. There's "something magical about him," one mom said.

"For me a conductor was a tiny little figure that I would see from the second balcony of Symphony Hall during all of those years of my teens. A barely discernible little figure, seen from very far away who was so glamorous and so inaccessible and special conducting a hundred odd men, that it never occurred to me that I could be such a thing."
-Leonard Bernstein (Peter Rosen interview 1977)

One of the best parts of awards season here is talking to directors about their top students. After challenging times over the past few years, it is heart-warming to hear about young leaders who set a strong example and helped keep programs moving forward. During the week, we ship all orders within 24 hours, the vast majority on the same day. Let us know how we can help. instrumentalistawards.com 888-446-6888
