Pubradio music org will meet in tandem with PRPD

This year the Association of Music Personnel in Public Radio (AMPPR) will hold its annual conference in conjunction with the Public Radio Program Directors conference in Las Vegas, Sept. 11–14.

“The idea of meeting with PRPD has been floated for several years,” wrote David Duff, AMPPR’s president, in a post on the group’s website. “The two organizations began exploring the possibilities last year, and have agreed to work together to develop a strong and robust music track for this year’s conference.”

AMPPR will survey its members for feedback on which topics should be covered at the conference. Members of AMPPR will not need to become PRPD members to attend.
