More often than not, we focus on our mistakes when practicing and rehearsing. But nobody is interested in us performing without mistakes! Everyone wants to be touched by our music. We, therefore, need to change the way we practice.

Social media is a waste of your time. It does not help you build meaningful connections unless you have over 10.000 followers. Focus on personal meetings, phone calls, well-researched and well-written e-mails instead.

Apple just launched the long-awaited Apple Music Classical app. Since Apple acquired Primephonic in August 2021, we have waited for that. But is a new music app dedicated to classical music the right move? Bernhard Kerres argues that is the wrong move for many reasons - especially because it puts classical music once more in an elitist ivory tower. But there are some lessons to be learned for musicians and people working in classical music.

With the war in Ukraine, some musicians say they do not understand politics. They use that as an excuse for not standing up for their values. In many countries, music and the arts are protected in the constitution. Does that special protection not mean one should engage even more in the greater good of our communities?

Think playlists and share your music!
