TMEA STATE HIGHER EDUCATION CHAIR’S MESSAGE Ryan Fisher, Ph. D. THE 2017 TMEA PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CONFERENCE is quickly approaching and offers several opportunities for higher education music educators to gather and share ideas. Interest sessions ranging from professional portfolio development to issues concerning LGBT students in music ensembles will be presented. We especially want to invite all higher education music instructors to our Higher Education Caucus on Thursday, April 6th. This caucus is specifically designed for us to share our ideas and dialogue about our challenges and successes. If that isn’t enough to lure you, food and beverages will be available, free of charge. We hope that each university with a CNAfME chapter will arrange for your students to attend this year’s conference. There are so many opportunities for your college students to learn from experienced music educators by attending sessions or observing all-state ensemble rehearsals. We also need our CNAfME students to volunteer to preside over interest sessions. TMEA also sponsors special events just for CNAfME members (some including free food). I am also happy to announce that a variety of small ensembles will be performing in the Ryman Lobby and Exhibit Hall throughout the conference this year. This year’s “Spotlight Chamber Ensemble” performers are: Austin Peay Clarinet Ensemble, Cornerstone Brass Quintet (University of Memphis), Fifth Measure (a cappella ensemble from Houston High School in Germantown), Meistersingers (Tennessee State University), Bluff City 5 (woodwind quintet from the University of Memphis), Off Kilter (a cappella ensemble from Maryville College), The Bright Boys (saxophone quartet from Maryville High School), Ravenwood High School Chamber Choir, Greyscale (a cappella ensemble from East Tennessee State University), Oliver Percussion Ensemble (Oliver Middle School in Nashville), and the UT Martin Tuba/Euphonium Ensemble. Most ensembles will perform during the transition periods in between sessions. Please support the students in these fine ensembles by attending as many performances as possible on your way to and from sessions. Finally, we are excited to feature the TMEA Intercollegiate Orchestra under the direction of Jeffrey Grogan, Education and Community Engagement Conductor of the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra. They will be rehearsing the day before the TMEA conference begins and will perform during the opening session of the conference. Please make plans to attend the opening session so you can hear this amazing ensemble representing university string students throughout Tennessee. It is so important for our music educators from K-12 and college to come together at least one time each year. Our music education community is vital to this state, and we must gather together to sharpen our skills, share our ideas, and build and renew relationships. I look forward to seeing you in Nashville. We hope that each university with a CNAfME chapter will arrange for your students to attend this year’s conference. There are so many opportunities for your college students to learn from experienced music educators by attending sessions or observing all-state ensemble rehearsals.
