We had the great opportunity to interview Dr. Joseph Pisano,
Assistant Chairman of Music and Fine Arts at Grove City College in
Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Dr. Pisano discussed several
items with us, such as using classical music archives in the classroom,
and some of the equipment that can be used, and using more modern music
without breaking copyright rules. Dr. Pisano also publishes the fabulous Mustech.net Blog,
possibly the finest blog on bringing music and technology into the
classroom, on the net today. If you haven't visited this blog yet, you
need to take some time and familiarize yourself with the myriad of
great articles there, and get on the mailing list. Currently, the blog
is engaged in a campaign to get 100 Music Education bloggers listed on
his site by the end of the year. I am proud to say that "...the music
is free..." is already among the first group of eighteen bloggers. You
can read more about the campaign here,
and if you don't have a blog, you can also find out how you too, can
become a supporter or Friend of the ME Blog. If you already have a
music education blog, then get on the list as soon as you can....it's becoming a phenomenal community.
