Call Me by MY Name

Abstract

Abstract What does care in music education look like when band directors make efforts to know their student musicians (who), beyond ensemble repertoire selections (what)? This narrative about two high school band directors explores teachers’ desires to reach beyond repertoire selection in an effort to know the Asian or Asian American students who participate in their concert and marching band programs. Particular attention is given to how these teachers have developed awareness of their Asian students’ names, and how that awareness aligns with intercultural sensitivity. Participants agreed that it is vital to know students’ names as a form of intercultural sensitivity whereby all learners are recognized and visible as human beings, not viewed merely as sonic contributors to band ensemble sound.
