In every case, what brought them to that transforming reality was the way the music made them feel...It was a deep emotional connection that seduced them into the world of music. These are the moments we want to create for our students.<br>Richard Floyd</p><p>In the context of an ensemble rehearsal, where does real music making begin?</p><p>How can we also infuse our rehearsals with artistry in order to create deep connections for our students, beyond the correct rhythms, in-tune notes, and proper technique?</p><p>How can we teach students to ultimately think for themselves?</p><p>With more than fifty years of experience, Richard Floyd is a highly distinguished teacher and conductor in Texas and across the United States.
