    • China: Cross-Cultural Performance and Pedagogy
In partnership between the University of Michigan and the Chinese Language Council International (Hanban), a tour of professors, graduate conductors, and undergraduate music education students participated in a music cultural exchange program in May of 2012. The tour was organized to further strengthen the ties between the United States and China, done so through the arts. Leading the tour was  Dr. Colleen Conway, Associate Professor of Music Education, and John Pasquale, Assistant Director of Bands and lecturer of conducting.

The goal of the music education tour was to "provide instruction and artistic collaboration of instrumental and ensemble pedagogy at the high school, university, and conservatory levels. These exchanges would involve individual, section, and ensemble work, and include shared sectionals, rehearsals, and performances. Within the scope of conducting and instruction of pedagogy, Pasquale and Conway decided to utilize the incredible talent of graduate and undergraduate students from the conducting and music education departments. The original objective was inevitably complemented by the growth and excitement that accompanies an immersive foreign excursion" (Carlin, 2013)
