Editor's Notes
- #3 KH – Intro both of us and do lead off slide - Screen grab of Title slide with student musician
- #4 JL- Mention tradition of focusing on musician’s musical training using performance ability as the main determinant of successful outcome Why this is not the sole arbiter of success today? Literature now supports teaching and learning that is geared toward the preparation of a musician able to navigate a portfolio of activities resulting in a successful life in music (Beeching & Cutler) Where do you create space for such learning?
- #5 JL- Afford them the time and space to investigate the question, “Why are you in music?” How do you define success? Is your thinking getting in your way? What kind of partnerships are you developing? How meaningful is your work? Angela M. Beeching, “Beyond Talent” – Interlude Cite Latta’s “goal sheet” as one means to help students consider, measure and refine their thinking
- #6 KH- Discuss how these careers relate to the portfolio musician
- #7 KH – 2-credit class offered by Music Management program Emphasis on reflective journals to respond to text’s questions Artists develop image materials, website, etc. Design, budget and plan an “outward facing” project/event 5-Year Career Plan to build ownership of managing their own self-sufficient life in music KH- A class is not a solution To instill self-sufficiency in young artists, the dialog about portfolio activities needs to “live” in as many different classroom and co-curricular experiences as possible Invite multiple colleagues from multiple perspectives to help plan and implement opportunities for students
- #8 JL-
