Harold stone is a legend in the music business. At the 2022 CMEA Conference, Drew had the pleasure of talking with Harold. Though the conversation went well over an hour, it only scratched the surface of a life lived in music and devoted to promoting music education and participation.

In part two of our interview, Harold remembers a no-so-fond memory of when his daughter was discouraged from pursuing the flute. This led to a great discussion on the role of music educators in early instruction and how a small shift in mindset can make all the difference to a kid.

We dive deeper into the many companies he has worked for, from Coon to Getzen, Leblanc, to Roth, and the varied roles and responsibilities he had at each stop along the way. The one consistent theme throughout is his commitment to music education.
