Scott Watson is a veteran music teacher, a frequently published and commissioned composer, and a highly regarded music education technology specialist. In addition to 25 years of experience in teaching K-12 instrumental and classroom music in the Parkland School District (Allentown, Pennsylvania), Watson serves as adjunct instructor at Villanova, Philadelphia Biblical, and Central Connecticut State Universities and has delivered numerous workshops and clinics to in-service music teachers.

This publication is the only one that I know of that illustrates the synergistic relationship between technology and musical creativity. Watson does a magnificent job providing a balance between the philosophical underpinnings and effective pedagogical strategies for providing music making opportunities to every student, using readily accessible software and hardware. Any educator looking to effectively integrate technology and creativity into their K-12 music curriculum should add this book to their list of must-have resources.
