of Social Media for Your <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong> Program<br />
Presenter: Dr. Michael Stewart, University of <strong>Tennessee</strong> Knoxville<br />
Unlike previous generations, today’s students are constantly faced with new <strong>and</strong> immediate means of communication. The<br />
days of letters <strong>and</strong> phone calls have since been replaced with texts, chat rooms, <strong>and</strong> emails. Constant access to information<br />
can be a double-edged sword for b<strong>and</strong> directors that can no longer be ignored. Social Media gives b<strong>and</strong> directors the<br />
opportunity to build public relations, communicate with parents/students, provide information, <strong>and</strong> recruit. However,<br />
Social Media, if not monitored, can also be a source of many problems in these same areas. This presentation will discuss<br />
ways to utilize the full resources of today’s Social Media while protecting you, your students, <strong>and</strong> your program from the<br />
pitfalls of 24/7 communication.<br />

teachers to provide another point of view for today’s music educator.

Charles F. Clark<br />
Charles F. Clark received his early music education in the public schools of <strong>Tennessee</strong>. Born in Brownsville, he played clarinet in elementary school <strong>and</strong><br />
continued this activity through high school. When his family moved to Memphis just before his senior year, he played in the Central High <strong>School</strong> <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> came under the tutelage of A. E. McClain. Attending college at The University of Louisiana at Monroe, he played in the b<strong>and</strong> under Dr. Joe Barry<br />
Mullins. Also during college he took up the viola, which became his primary instrument for the remainder of his career.<br />
As a teacher of b<strong>and</strong>, Clark held positions in Natchez, MS, Jefferson County, KY, Jefferson City, TN, <strong>and</strong> Memphis. In 1971, he became a teacher in<br />
the br<strong>and</strong> new orchestra program of the Memphis City <strong>School</strong>s, <strong>and</strong> helped grow that program through the years. He retired from his position at Overton<br />
High <strong>School</strong> for the Performing Arts in 1991.<br />
Not content to sit idle in retirement, Clark conducted the orchestra at Rhodes College <strong>and</strong> continued conducting a decade of musicals at Theatre<br />

Clark currently resides in Darien, GA.<br />
A.E. McClain<br />
A. E. McClain developed a love of music early in life <strong>and</strong> played in dance b<strong>and</strong>s to augment his income during the depression. He devoted most of his<br />
adult life to music education in the Memphis <strong>and</strong> Shelby County school systems. Though he majored in Latin in college, “Mr. Mac” was mostly known for<br />
his accomplishments as a b<strong>and</strong> director.<br />
The premier b<strong>and</strong>s he developed were at Nicholas Blackwell High <strong>School</strong> in Bartlett <strong>and</strong> at Central High <strong>School</strong> in Memphis from 1940 until 1960. Both<br />
progressed into outst<strong>and</strong>ing musical organizations <strong>and</strong> consistently won superior ratings at regional <strong>and</strong> state festivals. Including on occasions, the coveted<br />
outst<strong>and</strong>ing concert b<strong>and</strong> award. The Central <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong> also participated in the Tri-State Music Festival in Oklahoma for several years <strong>and</strong> was named the<br />
outst<strong>and</strong>ing concert b<strong>and</strong> there in 1960.<br />
He was a dem<strong>and</strong>ing leader who would not hesitate to dismiss a member who failed to “get with the program”. At the same time he had a genuine affection<br />
for his ”kids” which allowed for a strong bonding with them that was very evident in the rapport he had with them. His real talent <strong>and</strong> skill was inspiring<br />
<strong>and</strong> motivating young teenagers. That ability is consistently mentioned in the memories of his former students, including the following: “(He) was a great<br />
role model <strong>and</strong> mentor. He was exacting as a musician <strong>and</strong> director, who taught a sense of perfectionism in music; he also gave life-changing lessons in<br />
character <strong>and</strong> ethics to those of us who were lucky enough to be in his b<strong>and</strong>.”<br />
Upon retirement, he continued to be very active as an adjudicator <strong>and</strong> facilitator at various b<strong>and</strong> competitions <strong>and</strong> activities right up until his death.<br />
He died of heart failure in 1979 while serving as a judge at a Mississippi high school b<strong>and</strong> festival. The annual award for the Outst<strong>and</strong>ing Young <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong><br />
Director in Mississippi is named in his honor.<br />
Mr. Mac was the first inductee to the Memphis State University <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong>masters Hall of Fame in 1977, <strong>and</strong> in 2010, he was inducted into the <strong>Tennessee</strong> <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong>masters <strong>Association</strong> Hall of Fame.<br />
Marion A. Reithel<br />
Marion Reithel was born <strong>and</strong> reared in Rose Claire, Illinois. He began his music career at an early age playing in the town b<strong>and</strong>, alongside<br />
his father. In 1954 he graduated from Murray State University with a degree in Music Education <strong>and</strong> immediately took his one <strong>and</strong> only job<br />
as a music educator in the Union City <strong>School</strong> System.<br />
He became director of the Junior High <strong>and</strong> High <strong>School</strong> <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong>s at Union City in the fall of 1954 <strong>and</strong> never left. He taught in the Union City<br />
System for 44 years…a remarkable feat in the world of music education.<br />
During his long tenure at Union City, Marion became active in all aspects of the community. He started the Union City Civic Chorus, a<br />
Dixiel<strong>and</strong> b<strong>and</strong>, <strong>and</strong> the Instant Replay Big <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong> that remained together for over 20 years. Marion was also active as the choir director at a<br />
number of churches over the years.<br />
His greatest accomplishment as a music educator would have to be his love for his students <strong>and</strong> his love for music education. In his 44 years at<br />
Union City Marion made b<strong>and</strong> the “thing to do.” He consistently maintained over 30 percent of the student body in the b<strong>and</strong> program.<br />
One of his former students <strong>and</strong> the current Director of <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong>s at Union City John Easley said, “Marion thought it was always the most important aspect to involve as many students as<br />
possible in the b<strong>and</strong> program. When I came home to be his assistant, the one thing that he said was ‘not all kids are going to be professionals in music, but they can all be advocates.’ ”<br />
Because of Reithel’s philosophy, the Union City <strong>B<strong>and</strong></strong> Program still maintains 30 to 35 percent of the student body in the program today, <strong>and</strong> many local b<strong>and</strong> supporters themselves are<br />
former students of the man the town calls “Union City’s Mr. Music.”<br />
