In this episode we start what is a two-part interview with violinist and pedagogue Amy Beth Horman.
We had such a fascinating conversation about practice, both from her perspective, which you will hear today, but also about how she works with and talks about practice with her daughter Ava and with her students (which we’ll get into more in next week’s episode). I found this conversation fascinating and I can’t wait for you to join us!

In my work conducting interviews, giving talks and workshops, and working with many families over the last two decades, I've realized there are many, many reasons we practice. In this episode I share four common reasons we practice.
Of course one reason is that we want to, or love to, practice. But there are other very valid experiences around practice too!
