Wonderful podcast!
I always learn something new from listening to this. I greatly appreciate the practice advice and inspiration :)
Great!
I’m a musician with a degree trying to get back to playing and making it fun again. I recently discovered this podcast while browsing and I’m so thankful I found it! This podcast puts me in a positive mood and mindset. It’s fun and enjoyable to listen to.
I LOVE
As a student and a musician, this is my favorite podcast. I learn so much about practicing, honing my craft, the professional world of the arts, and I come away inspired with each episode. I keep thinking, "What else is there to say about practicing? Surely we must have covered it all already!" But I still am finding new, practical tips and tricks to add to my arsenal. Dr. Gauthier has curated such an astoning variety of hosts, and does a great job asking interesting questions.
