Welcome back for Season 3 of the Common Time Podcast! In this episode of the Common Time Podcast, we welcome the legendary Dr. Tim Lautzenheiser to the conversation. Known for his passion, wisdom, and ability to inspire both educators and students, Dr. Tim shares his perspective on what it really takes to build a thriving program culture.

We dive into practical ways directors can set the tone for their ensembles at the start of the school year, how to give feedback that motivates rather than discourages, and what it means to lead with purpose. Whether you’re a first-year teacher or a seasoned director, this episode is packed with energy and insights you can carry straight into your rehearsals.

Join us as we kick off a new season with one of music education’s most impactful voices.
