Episode 4 has many similarities to Wagner's Ring Cycle - it is both long and epic! On the show is Peter's former colleague, dear friend, and AMAZING music educator, Parker Bixby, Mercer Island Band Program in Seattle. Our chat includes ideas regarding music department websites, vertical staffing, and a new philosophy and process for auditions. Don't worry, it's not all serious - Phil records the episode from a closet in his home and Parker shares a story about Peter missing a gig.
