Brayer Teague, fine arts department chair at Downers Grove North High School, spent time with edCircuit to discuss the power of music education on his life and that of his students. Teague talks about his love of composition and the debate between recreating historically significant pieces of music versus originally created student works. Teague’s passion for music and education shine brightly in this one-on-one interview!
