Updates/Corrections – Festival Music List

Altered & Retired Selections

Each year certain sections of the festival music list are reviewed and revised (see the revision schedule here.) The following downloads of affected selections are being provided to assist teachers in updating their library. Please note that while every effort is made to provide complete listings, the published Festival Music List is the formal document to abide by if discrepancies occur.

New Edition Available Now!

January 2023
“The Joy of Teaching”

Music educators often deem the “joy of teaching” as their number one reason for entering the profession.

An educational collaboration by WSMA and PBS Wisconsin Education

Re/sound: Songs of Wisconsin
In a state-wide survey and listening sessions with music educators, we learned about the need for current, authentic, culturally diverse resources, as well as support in teaching with and about music from different cultures. This multimedia collection for general music programs serving grades 4-8 includes video interviews with Wisconsin musicians, performances, audio files, and educator engagement guides designed to help activate the media with learners.
