Summary: Michael Trowbridge is a former public school orchestra director and an active bass teacher, presenter, and author.  He is the co-author of Measures of Success for String Orchestra and the author of Everybody’s Electric Bass Method, both published by FJH Music. Mike and I dig into some of my favorite interview topics, like life in the trenches as an orchestra director, how the teaching world has changed over the decades, and proven methods for connecting with different groups of students.  Enjoy!
