RJ Morgan and music student Jeremy Zerbe sit down with Randall Goosby, a talented violinist who began playing at age seven, going on to perform in orchestras such as The Cleveland Orchestra, the Buffalo Orchestra, the Rochester Orchestra, and the Orlando philharmonics, among others. He’s won a myriad of awards, including but not limited to the 2018 Young Concert Artists International Auditions, the Sphinx’s Isaac Stern Award, and Bagby Foundation grant. Currently, he is attending the Juilliard school of music, studying under Itzhak Perlman and Catherine Cho, and he is playing a Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesu of 1735, on a generous loan by the Stradivari Society. 

The three discuss Randall’s career in music and what motivates him to keep creating and performing. His musical inspirations and the value he places on his craft are both fascinating and enriching for all, so for any music lover, this is well worth the listen.
