Welcome to MsBandDirector.com. World's largest network of professional music educators all working together in the internet 2.0 collaborative format. Use this page as your professional resume page by uploading sound files of your playing and accompanying, your compositions, or your studio, so that you have a one-stop digital resume for potential clients and employers.
Uploading pictures blends your professional pictures with those of your colleagues to create an ongoing private picture show of incredible ideas and programs. Videos work the same way. Upload them to your page if they are about you, if they are videos that band directors could use in their classroom to teach about band, you can upload them to the Ed. Videos page.
The groups page is where you join or create local groups, State groups or National groups that deal with music. Currently there is a local accompanists group in Central Florida that I would love for you to join. This group will be published in many band handbooks across Central Florida.
again welcome,
