Music & Drama Education Expo Recap

I am on my way back home from London this morning after spending two exciting days at the Music & Drama Education Expo - one of my favorite events of the year. This is the largest conference for music educators in the UK and MusicFirst UK has been exhibiting and presenting sessions since the very beginning. This year was a very exciting one on the stand at the show. We had our full UK staff in attendance, including Richard Payne, Naomi Cook, and Matt Allen, as well as one of our UK Ambassador, James Manwaring, and my dear friend Marcel Pusey from OGenPlus - the completed updated and improved version of O-Generator - launching this April. I always enjoy spending time with my UK staff as well as meeting with our amazing customers.

In addition to standing in our booth, the Expo is an opportunity for me to meet with some of our amazing UK partners and work on new opportunities to improve our offerings for UK music teachers. There are so many wonderful organizations and like-minded companies at this show, and I had some very exciting meetings and conversations throughout.

On a person note, because my wife Alison and my Mom are both originally born in the UK, I have LOTS of family over here and I always look for any opportunity to spend time with them. I was thrilled to make a quick trip out to Bath this time to have dinner with my dear brother-in-law Stephen and his wife Claire. I look forward to my next trip over! Until next time, here are some photos of my trip. Enjoy!
