I’m Mark Evans. As a composer and writer, I have been deeply concerned about students emerging from school unfamiliar with any music other than what they’ve encountered through Social Media.

Many haven’t read a book that hasn’t been assigned to them. Others are unfamiliar with the most basic facts of our history but know every detail of today’s celebrity culture.

This site will provide you with the tools, the resources, and the inspiration to encounter the best of the past which shouldn’t be forgotten, the best of the present, which shouldn’t be ignored, and the best of the future, which shouldn’t be undiscovered.
