This week, Liz and Steph welcome Assistant Professor of Viola at the University of Arizona, Dr. Molly Gebrian! With her dual-degree in Music and Neuroscience, Molly is a virtual unicorn in the field of music education. A scientist at heart, she is passionate about experimenting with (and on) her students to find the best techniques and philosophies to help in the realm of musical practice. Liz and Steph talk with Molly about how our brain learns and even how we UN-learn bad habits; something that every musician is familiar with! If you sometimes feel as though your practice could use a fresh perspective and some new tools, you can’t miss this conversation!
