This class will ask each student to look deeply into themselves to answer important personal questions: Why did I decide to become a musician?  What does music mean to me?  What is the purpose of music in my life and in the world? Crucially, the answers to these questions will lead to more questions: How do my feelings about music affect how I play? How do they affect how I practice, rehearse and perform? How do they impact stage fright?   Students in this class will be asked to think, write and speak about their relationship to music.  Each student will be asked to play for the others in the class.  Classes will include listening to, playing and talking about music and the processes of music-making.
