Musical Instruments for All

For me, playing a musical instrument has always been a privilege. I never forget how valuable my instruments are to me. Each instrument, with its own characteristics, opens a unique manner of expression for me. Whether it’s by playing a somber tone of the viola, taking mercurial flight with the flute, or strutting virtuosically on the violin, I find a oneness with each of these instruments.

A Career in Music

Being a professional musician is more than just playing an instrument or singing.

Very early in my career, I learned that being a pro musician required a large set of skills and an entrepreneurial spirit. Oftentimes, in addition to performing (sometimes on multiple instruments!), I found myself teaching and/or do music-related administrative work.

Networking for Musicians

As a freelancing musician, yes, I always strive to be the best player on my instrument but, a lot of the time, in order to get that next gig, it’s going to be more about WHO I KNOW.

At all points in my career in music, finding ways to grow and nourish my network is crucial.
