This conference marks the beginning of our next 50 years. As BCMEA member-volunteers reflect upon the strength and success of our association, a common theme arises: partnership! The relationships we build with students, parents, colleagues, administrators, and professional musicians, and the music industry are significant and important. Duets 2008 promises to provide delegates with professional development opportunities that equip teachers with innovative and creative strategies to maintain, foster, and build relationships throughout the music education community. Please join us for this remarkable celebration of the role of music and music educators in British Columbia’s schools!
