Too many instruments, too little time?
Is it possible to optimize one’s time by, say, singing scales while painting windows?
Andreas Persson has a big heart for instruments, not only to have but to properly play.
In this episode of the podcast, he shares how he learns a new instrument, which includes finding the right teacher. And practice very slowly.
Isolate a particular challenge in the music you're trying to get under your fingers, slow it down, unlearn the unsuccessful way of playing it so that you can learn how to successfully play it.
Aside from decades of playing music, Andreas also has a company (or two) and a passion for entrepreneurship. Business. Recruitment. Tech.
Words that for many musicians are mere syllables. How has his experience with these obscure industries been of help for him as a musician?
The answer is perhaps a relief for us non-tech musicians: be curious. Be helpful. And don't be rude.
A social media platform is what you make it to be. Don't give up on LinkedIn too quickly.
"Just say hello and see what happens".
