Mr. Parasky successfully launched his first online course this past summer called "Studio Ensemble Revolution". This course was designed as a teaching tool in order to illustrate how to incorporate studio ensembles into their private music studios and the tools available in order to teach ensembles in an online format.

Congratulations to Mr. Jim Sheppard on his retirement from teaching private saxophone lessons. The halls at the Newlonsburg Music Academy will feel a little more empty with him not around this year but he is still offering full service repair work in his newly added "free time".
