I would just like to thank all of the participants who helped produce this product. I graduated from Berklee College of Music and I have been teaching music for five years now. I am planning on buying the DVD and using it for some Musical activities in my classroom. It has also reminded me of the great need for music education. I hope it helps improve the need for music in schools.
