- Music
Meet conductor and author, John Hughes. In this conversation, we discuss John’s new book, Letters to a Young Conductor: Thoughts on Music and Life, all about how to maintain joy in music-making, career development, and how to keep the big picture in mind. This is really the perfect episode following bonus #23 in December and Dr. Robertson in January! To get your primed for the convo, check out this blurb all about the book, but tune in to learn more! "Letters to a Young Conductor: Thoughts on Music and Life is now available in print and on Apple Books. I wrote this with a younger version of myself in mind. Over four sections, “Mindset,” “In Rehearsal,” “In Concert,” and “Building A Career,” I offer the advice I wish I had listened to when I was first starting out. It’s a mix of philosophy and practical tips sprinkled with humor. Letters to a Young Conductor is an ideal read for people at the beginning of their careers, experienced directors looking for encouragement, and even people in leadership positions outside of music."Learn more about “Letters to a Young Conductor: Thoughts on Music and Life” at www.johnchughes.com, https://books.apple.com/us/book/letters-to-a-young-conductor/id6448801303 and https://a.co/d/ilRdsz1 Learn more about John Hughes at https://www.johnchughes.com/ Watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/l5vwKgyY6HMThe Music (ed) Matters Podcast is sponsored by our friends over at Perform International.
