Daryl W. Kinney, associate professor, joined the music education faculty at Ohio State in 2005.

His research can be found in the Journal of Research in Music Education, Bulletin of the Council for Research in Music Education, Journal of Music Teacher Education, International Journal of Music Education and Empirical Musicology Review.
