Born into a family of musicians, Dr. Kahn has harbored a lifelong love for music and a deep appreciation for music education. Raised in a community which provided educational opportunity in the arts – well-supported music programs were available at every level in public schools, and scholarships for study at Michigan’s Interlochen Music Camp were available to students – Dr. Kahn recognizes the tremendous benefit of these early opportunities, and the important formative influence they had on his life.
