Are you a professional musician, or experienced amateur, but still feel like you have gaps in your knowledge
that are holding you back? In this episode, I explore this in relation to one of my private students. He’s an accomplished musician,
but came to me looking for help in taking the next steps in his development. It makes for a very creative exchange between student and teacher.
We’re trying to pinpoint exactly what the problems are and coming up with practical ways of working on solutions, or directions for future work.
I really enjoy this kind of work, and I think students can really benefit from it. I learn so much in this process, as well.
