You can study it and read about it, but at some point, \u201cyou really have to learn by doing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This semester, Adam has been student teaching alongside the band director at Mooresville High School. Since it\u2019s fall and football season, \u201cdoing\u201d has meant not only time on the podium in the classroom, but also evenings and weekends managing the school\u2019s 150-member marching band, with typical workdays lasting well over 12 hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Department of Music has really prepared me well,\u201d he says. \u201cI hold the music education faculty in the highest esteem, and I really don\u2019t know what I would do without their guidance. But there\u2019s something to be said for when you\u2019re in control.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adam will graduate on December 13 with a Bachelor of Music degree and a Certificate in Jazz Studies. A saxophonist from a family of professional musicians, the Boone native came to UNC Charlotte to study with saxophone professors Ben Still, who is also an alumnus of the department, and Will Campbell, whom he describes as \u201can important role model, teacher, and friend.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAdam Kallestad is an exemplary student in every way,\u201d says Campbell, who directs the Jazz Studies program. \u201cAs an All-State classical and jazz saxophonist, he arrived at UNC Charlotte well-prepared for college. He contributed greatly to the Department of Music, both as a musician and a student leader. The combination of his innate talent and great work ethic allowed him to improve dramatically during his time here at UNC Charlotte. Additionally, he&#8217;s a wonderful person and has served as a role model for all of us!\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adam\u2019s musical prowess earned him the four-year MJR Jazz Scholarship, a scholarship made possible by Jay and Mirunalini Raja that supports research opportunities for jazz students. The experiences funded through that scholarship have been extraordinary, he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI have had the opportunity to study with Grammy-nominated jazz saxophonist Tim Armacost. I traveled to New York City in 2023 to experience live jazz music and visit historically significant sites. I went to the home of Charlie Parker, went to jazz clubs, and met jazz musicians. That was really special.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1600\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC.jpg\" alt=\"Adam Kallestad in New York City in front of Charlie Parker's house.\" class=\"wp-image-62753 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-1400x933.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_NYC-300x200.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2400\/1600;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">With the support of the MJR Jazz Scholarship, Adam Kallestad traveled to New York City to visit places of importance to jazz history.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This past May, the MJR Jazz Scholarship allowed Adam to travel to Barcelona, Spain, to study with Joan Chamorro, the director of the Sant Andreu Jazz Band.

The past several months at Mooresville High School have only reinforced his commitment to education, he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019ve really seen that teaching is where my heart is. That\u2019s where I\u2019m going to make the biggest difference in the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adam says that music changed his life and that as a teacher, he sees how it changes peoples\u2019 lives every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;When we teach music, we are teaching much more than how to sing or play an instrument; we are teaching someone to express themselves artistically in such a way that they move others emotionally. \u2060This is a very powerful thing, to connect with one another through collaborative, creative output&#8230;to share one&#8217;s feelings and tell stories through beautiful sounds&#8230;to learn about and embrace art, culture, and humanity&#8230;the list goes on. When we teach music, we inspire love for life itself. If there is anything that can bring us together, I believe it is this.&#8221;\u2060<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1350\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1.jpg\" alt=\"Adam Kallestad with a co-teacher at Mooresville High School football game.\" class=\"wp-image-62757 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-600x337.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-1000x563.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-1400x788.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/cws.charlotte.edu\/backup-coaa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/807\/2024\/12\/Adam-Kallestad_Mooresville-1-300x169.jpg 300w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2400px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2400\/1350;\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Adam Kallestad (left) has been working long days as a student teacher at Mooresville High School.
