Shawn got his Bachelorâs degree in Popular Music/Keyboards at the University of Southern California, and now works as a Producer and a Music Director. Stacey got her Bachelorâs degree in Music Education with piano as her primary instrument from the Eastman School of Music, and then went on to get her Masterâs and her Graduate Performance Diploma from the Longy School of Music in flute performance. She is an active performer on both piano and flute nationally and internationally.
I loved learning about what a degree in popular music can look like from Shawn, and Staceyâs experience serving with the Air National Guard Band of the Northeast on flute and piccolo. It also was just so fascinating to see their different experiences in the worlds of classical and popular music, and how these two worlds intersect.

Annie Trimber is a social media manager, content creator, photographer and food stylist. She studied at Northwestern University, where she got a double major in flute performance and business and marketing. Annie began playing the flute at the age of 5, and had high career goals of a performance career in music. But that came to a screeching halt when she diagnosed with debilitating tendonitis in her third year at Northwestern. She had to take the fall semester of her final year off, and figure out how to pivot to a new career pathway after spending 15 years of her life dedicated to music. Itâs amazing to hear how she pulled on her love for food and sustainability to forge a new pathway filled with unique and rich experiences in the food blogging, content creation space.ANNIEâS EPISODE RESOURCES:Current Fav Composer: Shostakovich, Beethoven and BachCurrent Fav Piece of Classical Music: Bach Cello Suite 1Fav Movie Soundtrack: Salt Burn and Star WarsGo-to Lazy Meal: a toastie; peanut butter with dates and chocolate chipsBook Rec: The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt Musician You Admire: Labyrinth, Queen HerbySocial Media Account that offers inspo: @relaurenMost Useful App on Phone: Adore Rush and redditResource Rec: Range by David EpsteinAudible Free Trial: â â â â https://amzn.to/3VXwMWf Amazon Music Free Trial: â â â â https://amzn.to/3W1TtsrCONNECT WITH ANNIE:Instagram: @annietrimberFood Blog: annietrimber.comORCHESTRATING YOUR CAREER YouTubeInstagramFacebookABOUT THE HOSTRebekah Carpio received her BMus in clarinet performance from the Eastman School of Music.

David Young is the Assistant Principal Bassoonist of the NSO. He did his undergraduate degree at Northwestern University and then went to the University of Maryland to take part in the Woodwind Quintet Fellowship. He actually left his masters studies early to play with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra in Norway for a few months, and then spent four years in the United Stated Presidentâs Own Marine Band. Itâs really inspiring to see Davidâs commitment to never giving up on his dream of playing in a major symphony orchestra. And itâs amazing to hear how he reaches that goal to now be, in his words, living the dream.

Luci Disano is a clarinetist who has been a member of âThe Presidentâs Ownâ United States Marine Band since January of 2014, made her conducting debut in 2016, and also works as an arranger. She got her undergraduate degree from the Eastman School of Music, her masters from the University of Northern Colorado, and a doctorate of conducting from the University of Maryland.
In this interview Luci shares her experiences navigating her studies through three different degrees, her audition for the US Marine Band and the comedy of errors that led up to her winning a position, some highlights of her time playing in the band, as well as how she got into conducting and arranging. Itâs inspiring to hear how she balances these many different parts of her career alongside her family life as a wife and new mother.LUCIâS EPISODE RESOURCES~ Current fav composer: John Williams~ Current fav soundtrack: Ori and the Will of the Wisps~ Current fav piece of classical music: Usonian Dwellings by Michael Gilbertso~ Just finished reading: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo~ Resources to check out: The War of Art by Steven Pressfield; Winning Ugly by Brad Gilbert and Steve Jamison; Performance Success by Don GreeneAudible Free Trial: â â â https://amzn.to/3PDwFu3â â Amazon Music Free Trial: â â â https://amzn.to/45289IVâ â â CONNECT WITH LUCILuci Disanoâs Website: https://www.lucidisano.com/about-1ORCHESTRATING YOUR CAREERYouTube Subscribe: â â â https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaCPf5xynqMHcFuQhCWrNCQInstagram: â â â https://www.instagram.com/orchestrati...TikTok: â â â https://www.tiktok.com/@orchestrating...X: â â â https://twitter.com/OYCPodâ â â Facebook: â â â http://facebook.com/orchestratingyour...

Don Hoffman was a clarinetist (not retired) in the United States Army Band âPershing's Own", and is a piano accompanist. He did his undergraduate degree at the Philadelphia College of Performing Arts, spent a year at the Franz Liszt Academy in Budapest, Hungary, and did his masterâs degree at Temple University before going on to win a job in the Army Band.
In this episode Don describes how his position has grown and evolved throughout his almost 30 years in the US Army Band, and he shares some really powerful stories, about how the Army band navigated through the national crises of 9/11 and the pandemic. As an accompanist, he also covers how he balances that alongside his clarinet playing.DONâS EPISODE RESOURCESFav Pieces of Classical Music: â â â Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique (Cleveland recording)or Mahler 2 (Vienna recording)Current Fav Movie Soundtrack: anything by â â â John Williams + GladiatorLatest Reading: Tom Clancy, Brad ThorRecommendations: The Bible, and The Grove Dictionaries of Music and Musicians;US Army Band History (mentioned in the episode)*Donâs school that he mentions in this episode (Philadelphia College of Performing Arts) morphed into University of the Arts, and the college of music/classical music department is no longer there.
