Graduate Student Success Stories
Research on Culturally Appropriate Music Plays Out In Middle School Band Class
Victoria DiMarzio teaches band and orchestra at a Denver middle school. Their students hail from 30 countries, including recent immigrants and refugees. In DiMarzio's inclusive and welcoming class, students weigh in on music that appropriately represents different cultures. DiMarzio is a Master of Music student in the University of Northern Colorado's Music Education Concentration program, where they are researching culturally responsive pedagogy from a student-led perspective.

Their strong connection has lasted through the years, and now, Hardy is completing the University of Northern Colorado's Music D.A. program, Music Performance Concentration, under Fulks' tutelage.
