THE TENNESSEE MUSICIAN<br />
The Official Publication of the Tennessee<br />
Music Education Association<br />
The Tennessee Music Education Association (TMEA)<br />
was officially formed in 1945 as a voluntary, non-profit<br />
organization representing all phases of music education at<br />
all school levels. The mission of TMEA is to promote the<br />
advancement of high quality music education for all. Active<br />
TMEA membership is open to all persons currently teaching<br />
music and others with a special interest or involvement<br />
in music education. Collegiate membership and retired<br />
memberships are available. Membership applications are<br />
available on the TMEA web site, www.tnmea.org.<br />
The Tennessee <strong>Musician</strong> was founded in 1948 with J.<br />
Clark Rhodes appointed by the TMEA Board of Control as<br />
inaugural editor. Tennessee <strong>Musician</strong> was preceded by an<br />
earlier publication, Tennessee Music Editors’ Downbeat,<br />
which was discontinued by the TMEA Board of Control at<br />
the spring board meeting, held in Chattanooga, Tennessee<br />
in 1948. Tennessee <strong>Musician</strong> is published by Slate Group –<br />
Lubbock, Texas and is mailed to members four times each<br />
year at an annual subscription rate of $6.00 (included in<br />
dues). <strong>No</strong>n-member subscription rate (includes S&H): $30.00<br />
per school year; single copies: $10.00 per issue<br />
