Annual Southwestern Adventist University Music Festival

Every year since 2014, Dr. Howard has had the pleasure of participating in Southwestern Adventist University's Annual Music Festival as a planner, performer and clinician. The festival features a variety of opportunities for instrumentalists and vocalists, including the opportunity to perform in a world premiere at the Morton H. Meyerson Symphony Center in Dallas.

Every year, the Festival continues its tradition of bringing both musical masterworks and new music to the stage. The Southwestern Music Festival has featured artists such as Eriks Esenvalds, Kim Andre Arnesen, Craig Courtney and American composer Brandon A. Boyd.
