Lee Berk’s father had a unique approach to teaching music, bringing the passion and fun of music making into the classroom. The Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA, was founded with those ideas and in the decades to follow his son Lee built upon that vision. Lee ensured that jazz programs were created and that important interactive programs were part of the educational experience for each student. As a result of his father’s vision and Lee’s execution of those ideas, the Berklee School of Music has become a respected and honored college for music education.
