Spring 2023 - Volume 48, No. 3
Spring 2023 looks ahead to the Phoenix Convention, from tributes to the four awardees to session previews, including further remembrances of beloved colleagues and insightful how-tos. It also shares insight on the importance of lifelong learning, as well as wisdom from our committees, the members of which look at the importance of lifelong learning and the impact of diet on chronic pain and offer tips on better serving neurodiverse musicians. There’s also a chat with indigenous flutist and storyteller Paul Chiyokten Wagner and a call to be more expansive when thinking about repertoire. And as always, there is news from our community, reviews, and much more.
