Nuvo, New-You! – My First-Year Journey with Pre-Band Instruments in the Classroom
Part of CATCA 2026
Friday 20 February 2026·5:20 pm
Curious about trying Nuvo instruments like the Clarineo, jFlute, jHorn, or jSax in your music room? Join me for a behind-the-scenes look at my first year using these colourful, kid-friendly pre-band instruments in the classroom. I’ll share how they work, why I chose them, and how they’ve transformed student engagement, skill-building, and accessibility. We’ll talk benefits, honest challenges, and how they’ve impacted my lunchtime band club that uses traditional concert band instruments. Come with your questions, ideas, and imagination—this session is perfect for anyone considering new ways to start young musicians off with confidence and joy!
