Music Teacher

MT June carries a vocal and choral theme – literally as well as figuratively. There’s a report on voice change, offering practical guidance for those navigating this complex developmental stage, and on a European Kodály project for primary schools and their teachers. We also hear from the National Teachers’ Choir while exploring professional connection and shared learning, and from choral director Amy Bebbington on choral education. Vocals aside, articles explore musical diversity in the classroom, ways of assessing improvisation, woodwind instruments you may not have considered, and how to navigate that first lesson with beginner strings. On the tech side, the impressive Synthesizer V Studio 2 Pro is reviewed and there’s a step-by-step guide to recording drum-kits.
