It’s hard to believe that the 2006 convention could be topped, but 2007 really looks like it has the possibilities to do so! Special speakers include Daniel Levitin, PhD., author of This Is Your Brain on Music, who will speak on the value of music education, Dr. Ysaye (pronounced “Ee-sigh”) M. Barnwell, composer/presenter/performer with the internationally acclaimed female a cappella quintet “Sweet Honey in the Rock“, leading a General Session on building a vocal community which will provide you valuable information and inspiration toward achieving a vocal community in your classrooms, and Dr. Becky Bailey, award-winning author, renowned teacher, and internationally-recognized expert in childhood education and developmental psychology. Sweet Honey in the Rock will be there as well to thrill us with their beautiful music. Additional presenters and speakers will be announced as they become available.
All of the details, including links and maps to the hotel, airlines, finding a roommate, and the convention agenda can be found on KI’s Convention page found here.
