I think repertoire choices should not only reflect a musician’s artistry but also their awareness of contemporary social issues.
I feel that music takes you beyond the natural realm and even though we try to describe the experiences, we cannot completely find the words to do so.
The limitations on live performances. Social media has been lovely, but nothing beats the rush of sitting up straight, breathing out and playing that first note.
