History

Established in 1992.

We are honored to work with music educators and fortunate to be involved in a small part of the music education process. We thank you for the opportunities we’ve had to work with you for the last 19 years making on-​site recordings for you and your students.

Soundwaves was designed as an audio keepsake and fund-​raising service for music educators. We are happy to see that many educators use their recordings as a teaching tool, and as a source of audition material. And so we are pleased to offer an additional tool for music educators: MEtunes, Soundwaves Online Music Catalog™ allows you to easily browse and securely purchase CD recordings for yourself or to play for your students as you teach new pieces.
