Andrea Beyer is a bassist, teacher, and advocate for social growth.  Having recently finished up three years with the New World Symphony, Andrea has relocated to Austin, Texas. 

 

She recently started blogging for AuditionCafe.com, where she has been focusing on how all kinds of musicians are handling the pandemic and lockdown.  Andrea also recently asked me to write a piece for the blog, which was a pleasure for me to do.

 

We talk about her background, the teaching and performing that she has done in Mexico, El Salvador, Uruguay, Bolivia, and other countries, the work that she does for the MusAid Organization, how she has been handling the pandemic, and much more.

 

Enjoy, and be sure to follow Andrea and her great work on AuditionCafe.com and Instagram!
