Allan Labanowski created this original play-along drumming arrangement for "I Just Might" by Bruno Mars. This past week, Kent State University hosted a unique summer professional development course led by Jim Howell. The course introduced practical drumming strategies from the “Special Need for Music” program, helping educators create meaningful music experiences for students with disabilities. These engaging lessons can also be adapted for elementary music classrooms.

We had a great class at Kent State University School of Music this past week!
