The topic that I am interested in – Analysis and Interpretation in Classical Music
Anyone interested in classical music has likely heard the phrase ‘the performer’s interpretation.’ In classical music, interpretation is a great way for performers to showcase their individual charm and character.

Expanded Studio Practice Class Review (1)
Decide what I want to do and what I need to do every day and do it. It’s great to immerse myself in one thing and develop it, but when you’re exposed to and study many other arts or skills, it opens up more chances. I can do something with speaker drivers that move when…
