Debbie: Here is the Crescendo Music Education Podcast Episode 9. Time for my chat with Rhonda Davidson-Irwin. Apart from the fact she is a friend, I know that she’s just done amazing things for music education in her career. Again, we’re splitting this episode into two. There’s just so much to say, and I do plan to have more episodes with Rhonda. It’s amazing. The first episode, we will listen to a little bit about what she’s done, the highlights of her career/journey as a music educator, and some of the experiences she’s had. We’ll talk about the people who’ve been influential in her life, and of course, we’ll talk about gratitude. I think you’re going to love listening to Rhonda. If you haven’t met her before, she is a positive force to be reckoned with. I hope you enjoy part one of my chat with Rhonda Davidson-Erwin.
