Music education is more than learning notes and technique. It is giving young people a chance to experience something new, connect with an artist, and create a memory that can stay with them for life.

Tucson Jazz Festival co-founder Elliot Glicksman reflects on seeing students connect with Chawa during a recent school performance. The music, the movement, and the moment reminded us why access to live art matters.

Man-O-pause😂 We took a break during the filming of this podcast because it was hot in the room. Khris Dodge made a joke about feeling sensitive to heat as you age, then Haskell broke into song. The rest is history on this BTS clip. See the rest of the podcast on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.
