Education and Discussion

In this episode of the popular double reed podcast, Cayla talks with Galit Kaunitz and Jacqui Wilson about equity and access to private lessons, setting healthy boundaries in student-teacher relationships, and her new CD recording project.
Mindful Musical Life, Episode 2
podcast interview


There is a lot more to music than playing the notes. In this podcast Kevin Miescke, founder of Mindful Musical Life, interviews musicians about their experiences with all forms of contemplative practice. We explore everything from yoga, meditation, and breathing techniques, to mindful exercise and much more. There is something new to learn with every episode, and you will discover that what often starts with the goal of improving one's performance on stage turns into something much more.
