To my fellow music educators - PLEASE read this - you owe it to yourself. No this is not spam. This is a chain of emails between myself and the ILMEA "Upper echelon." What they are doing is horrible - and will open the floodgates to non-school music ensembles taking over IMEC. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1X4ysUXgmigL7osVWJg2VUwbjBsB6FDUABtIgtJsU93k/edit

This is good news. I'm intrigued to see this. 6A at ISU and 4A at BOA events. It'll open up a new finalist spot at ISU as well for 1A-4A, and make 5A-6A just that more difficult.
