Programming Culturally Diverse Music: The Time Is Now! Presenter: Stacy Dziuk

As educators, our ensembles and our students are increasingly diverse. Our repertoire selections and programming should be as well! All students should have the opportunity to have global experiences and understanding within the instrumental classroom. However, it can be difficult to know where to start, how to approach more culturally diverse programming, and how to incorporate it into our curriculum. This webinar will offer suggestions and solutions for questions pertaining to diversifying repertoire as well as resources for the music educator. At the end of this webinar, educators will be able to:
• Understand the need for diversifying repertoire choices for wind band.
• Identify the key issues that inhibit directors from choosing repertoire that is more culturally diverse or composed by more diverse composers-
• Identify solutions for each of the presented issues in relation to choosing culturally diverse repertoire
• Identify resources to help promote the programming of more culturally diverse music for wind band.
