Redefining the Musician seeks to share the stories of classical musicians who have left their career path, and redirected to something new. I thought it was only fitting to begin this podcast by sharing my own story. In this episode, you will hear about where I started with music, why I left, and where I'm at today. This episode also explores some of the key issues in the classical music industry that led to the beginning of this podcast.
