Owen Bradley's Digital Music Educator blog is worth the read. He is a band director who has decided to blog his thoughts, stories and technological knowledge for other directors to use. Since this is from a teacher perspective, I find the articles meaningful and personal. Bradley shares many iPad resources, not just for band purposes but for all areas of music education. Mainly, this blog is personal advancement, for teachers to learn about new technology or tips.

Evan Tobias is an assistant professor at ASU Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts School of Music. His blog focuses on contemporary issues, technology and showcasing different perspectives. This is an excellent resource to stay current and informed with new information about music. Tobias is very philosophical, less practical for classroom application, but important for professional development purposes.

A blog with multiple writers, which gives many different perspectives and a wide range of content. The website is very user friendly and content changes frequently. This is a great resource for music educators who are looking to advance their own knowledge and reading on new technology, and practices for their classroom.

Recent music education related articles, resources, free easy beginner level sheet music, and other music education related information. This website also has three to ten minute podcasts about music education, music technology and many about iPad uses.

This is a great interactive and multimedia resource for teachers from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's website.  The beta Digital Classroom begins with the 1950s.  Different artists are highlighted from the 1950s, each with a bio, authentic performance video, "why it matters" section and lesson objectives that highlight important musical aspects of the artist.  

Great website for band programs with limited instrumentation or for small chamber groups with nontraditional instrumentation.  Each band piece can be played as a solo or the full work.  The sheet music provides every instrument with the melody and the part for the band version.  New titles are added frequently!

This is a great website to use for free printable piano, vocal, guitar, fiddle and violin music.  There are varied levels for the piano music, which also has a wide range of repertoire.  Each song for piano also comes in different versions, either right hand only, chords added with the right hand, fingerings written in or the entire song.  

Great website for puzzles, quizzes, composition activities, instrument families and a great introduction to the NY Philharmonic.  This would be excellent to use before attending a NY Philharmonic concert. 

Ms. Karen Garrett has provided a website that is comprehensive, interactive and impressive for a classroom teacher.  Her lessons, worksheets and quizzes/games are excellent resources to use for beginner piano, note reading, rhythms, basic music history and music theory.  

Dr. Noa Kageyama is a sport and performance psychologist with a music background.  He provides very interesting and introspective articles to help people improve themselves as people and performers, and offers a course to teach you how to overcome performance anxiety.  Great resource for people who struggle with performing.
