Welcome to the APME Los Angeles 2024 conference. Here you’ll be able to register for the conference and update your Sched profile. A draft of the conference schedule will be available beginning March 1. At that time, you’ll be able to view the schedule and select what presentations you’d like to attend. If you have any questions, please visit our conference website or contact us at conference@popularmusiceducation.org We look forward to coming together as a community June 5–8 to consider the past, present, and future of popular music education.
Band AND will focus on three ways to adapt our curriculum in traditional ensembles: Changing warmups to playing scales and arpeggios to a contemporary music track; changing the repertoire we program to include contemporary genres; and an innovative unit called Band AND which includes songwriting, production, improvisation, and more.
