How might musical engagement, learning, and inquiry impact communities and society?
This question animates my teaching, creative work, and research.
I enjoy collaborating with people and organizations interested in the role that musical engagement and learning can play in forwarding goals that improve people’s lives and impact communities and society, positively. I am particularly interested in projects or partnerships that leverage the power of music and musical engagement in new or emerging ways that blur boundaries, advance knowledge and fields, or open imaginative possibilities.
Evan heads the Consortium for Innovation and Transformation in Music Education.
