On Practicing

mercredi 10 mai 2023Duration 09:51

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.

17/21 I am a Musician - Flutist Veronika Vitazkova

lundi 16 août 2021Duration 24:22

"I am a musician. I am free. I play what I want, when I want, with who I want." - Flutist Veronika Vitazkova in an interview with Bernhard Kerres. Veronika has over 50 different flutes and plays them all. She accepts the challenge to learn playing a new flute within weeks and to perform publicly with it or even record a soundtrack with it. Yes, she studied at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, but instead of going through the narrow - and crowded - door of orchestra auditions, she found a much more fulfilling and fascinating musical life without needing to go through that door.

Working with agents

lundi 26 mars 2018Duration 04:54

Working with agents requires close cooperation. Define together what you want to achieve and what everyone has to do. Be aware of “rouge agents” who just take money but are not really artist managers. If in doubt check at www.classicalmusicartists.com
