Making Time for Music: a chat with violinist Julia Reddy
The Violin Geek Podcast - A podcast by Laurel Thomsen - Mondays
Categories:
Today we speak with violinist, educator, and Violin Class podcast creator and host Julia Reddy about making time for practice. We discuss how to ramp back up after a hiatus, how to make the most out of limited time, how to effectively divide up our practice time and focus our attention for results, and how to balance our practice routine when juggling solo repertoire and technical work with orchestral or audition preparation. We hope you enjoy!
