Together, we explore how music educators can build stronger relationships, increase student engagement, and create more meaningful learning experiences by embracing the music that already resonates with today's students.

Whether you teach band, choir, orchestra, mariachi, guitar, or general music, this conversation is full of practical ideas and thoughtful perspectives you can take back to your classroom.

Huge thank you to TMEA, Jennifer, and the IDEA Committee for inviting us to record a live episode of The Score Podcast at the 2026 TMEA Convention. We are truly grateful for the opportunity and the trust.

Special thanks to our incredible guests Samara Martinez, Shirron Hawkins, and Sarah Lopes for sharing their insight, experience, and corazรณn โ™ฅ๏ธ with our listeners. When we started this podcast back in 2019, we honestly believed that the kinds of conversations we were having might keep us from ever being invited into spaces like this. Being back at TMEA for our second live podcast, surrounded by former guests, former students, colleagues, professors and administrators, was incredibly meaningful.

This morning was special. Thank you for the support, the leadership, the friendships, and the relationships that grew through this work. Most of all, thank you for allowing us to use this platform to highlight amazing educators and the powerful stories happening in classrooms every day.
