Vaguely Music Double Bar Music

Rieko Tanaka was born in Shizuoka, Japan. Her passion for the piano began when she started formal lessons at age three. She has distinguished herself as a classical pianist and jazz musician. She can play anything, including blues, rock, and the American Songbook. According to Tanaka, variety is the spice of life and is what makes each person uniquely themselves as a teacher, performer, and artist. Join Ryan, Kelsey, and Rieko as they discuss how variety in learning, performing, and collaborating can give you a unique perspective and understanding that other people can learn from or appreciate in your unique musical voice.

Space. In a constantly moving world, it's something we've become increasingly uncomfortable with and yet it plays such an important role in the development of musical ideas. In our Season 2 premier episode, Ryan and Kelsey break down the role of space and silence in musical arrangements and how absence can be the most important element in creating power and meaning in sound. (Hint: life lessons might ensue...) Welcome back to Vaguely Music Season 2!

It's here! The Vaguely Music season finale! Join Ryan and Kelsey with guest Jon Bricker: a talent buyer and concert / event producer with Pretty Polly Productions (http://prettypolly.com/). Jon talks about his personal experience as a musician, and how he found his way into representing venues and event coordinators on their search for artists to take the stage. What counts the most? You guessed it: relationship building. Enjoy the Vaguely Music season finale! 

Everyone knows the music they like and the music they don't like. What do you see when when you look at the history of your musical preferences - where did they start? What were you surrounded by as a child, young adult? What did your friends listen to? Ryan and Kelsey take a look at their musical tastes and history, and make the connections between musical taste in the here and now and what brought them to this place. We'd love to hear yours!
