Debbie: The Crescendo Music Education Podcast Episode #4. I think you’re in for a real treat with this episode. I have a chat to Tanya LeJeune, it’s just wonderful listening to her. We actually just got on a bit of a roll, we just kept talking and talking and talking. I decided I’d split this one into two episodes. It’s slightly ironic because I was even talking to her about the length of episodes and we said that a long episode didn’t really matter because you could just stop your podcast player and listen to the end later. Then I decided, actually, I will split it into two. In this first half of our chat, you’ll hear her talk about her background, the work that she does, some highlights of her journey as a music educator and some people of influence in her life. There are some real pearls of wisdom. I think you’re going to really love the first half of this chat with Tanya. Sit back and enjoy.
Debbie: Welcome, Tanya LeJeune. It is so exciting to have you here on the podcast.
Tanya: I’m so excited to be here.<
