Gabe Bolkosky: a New Philosophy of Practice
Manage episode 414481047 series 1281922
In this fascinating episode, my guest Gabe Bolkosky and I discuss:
- Childhood development
- How music education can promote personal growth
- Creating an online platform for musicians to practice and improve with a nurturing community and personalized guidance
- Practicing music without self-criticism
- Parallel growth in music and entrepreneurship
Violinist and violist Gabe Bolkosky has been praised for the way he "takes audiences into his confidence and includes them" and described as having "the serenity of a master without a hint of coldness." Primarily a violinist, he performs a diverse repertoire of classical and contemporary works with different collaborative artists from many musical genres in many of the great concert halls. Coming in 2024, Gabe will release Mozart's Milanese quartets with the Bayberry String Quartet. He has performed and taught across the United States and abroad, working with all ages of musicians. As a member of the Bayberry String Quartet, he recently pioneered an online approach to music-making and collaboration from home. His organization, Education for Happiness, recently launched PhoenixPhest Virtual Chamber Music Immersive and Rollin’ Daily Practice Support, culminating a 20 year in-person program now being implemented online. His focus educationally has been to help musicians of all ages and stages with a focus on inclusion.
I've participated in Gabe's Rollin' Practice sessions, and loved how relaxed and peaceful I felt, all while getting good work done! That's not a fluke - it's fully by design! You can sign up for these sessions at a discounted price with my special link!
You can learn more about Rollin' Practice at their website, or follow Gabe's larger umbrella at Education for Happiness.
