The work that seasoned music teachers put into their lesson plans, private lessons and rehearsals is honed for years, informed by other teachers, reading, and feedback, the ultimate outcome being well-crafted materials and lesson plans. Meanwhile, new teachers are often seeking materials which can assist them in building their own lessons plans. What if there were a place where music educators, authors and composers could offer their lesson plans, repertoire and custom arrangements?
Enter SMP Press, where unique repertoire and music-teaching materials can be self-published, shared and purchased by a global audience, including:
