About this listen

Part 1 of our interview with Dr. Jessie Vallejo.

In this episode, Adam, Leandro, and Kurt interview Dr. Jessie Vallejo, an Associate Professor of Ethnomusicology and Director of Mariachi Ensembles at Cal Poly Pomona. We delve into the fascinating evolution of the educational system, particularly with the advent of revolutionary new technologies, and how these changes have shaped the way we learn and teach. We also explore how different cultures can permeate and absorb into music academia and the benefits of better access to academic institutions for students and local communities. Additionally, we touch upon the profound impact of COVID-19 on performers who make a living with music, and of course, we have some generally fun conversations.
