I am very excited to introduce a new tool in the music program at Ashford School. Smart Music is an online program designed to help students practice more effectively and increase communication between students, teachers and parents. I have ordered a master copy for the band room and will be incorportating it into our lessons this year. Individual students are also able to order a home membership. I invite all families to explore Smart Music together and consider this option for your children. For the price of $30, students are given access to thousands of pieces of music, including lesson books, solos and band music. The program will record your students, help them identify and correct mistakes and allow them to send me and their families, recordings of their practice sessions. I will be holding a Smart Music demonstration session during both Open Houses, but if you would like to learn more information, please feel free to check out their website:

If you are interested in purchasing Smart Music prior to the Open House, please contact me for more information.
This an extremely exciting opportunity for our students and the music program. I look forward to utilizing the strengths of this software in our program and encouraging your children to become independent and creative musicians.
Please contact me if you would like to learn more!
