On this episode I have a conversation with Braxton Haulcy, the Executive Director of the Walker West Music Academy. Walker West is thought to be the oldest community music school in the nation founded by African American musicians. This non-profit music school teaches all styles of music, but is especially well-known for teaching jazz, gospel and other styles of improvisational music. The organization provides affordable, quality music instruction inspired by the African American cultural experience to young people and adults. All faculty members are working professional musicians. Braxton and I discuss the overall benefits of music, how the academy had to pivot during the pandemic, and what is next for Walker West Music Academy.
