Description

 In this episode, I'm talking with pianist and educator Janna Williamson about how she prepares her students and studio for recital season. I wanted to talk with Janna specifically because she's a teacher who models both excellence and perspective. Her students perform beautifully, but her focus isn't on perfection.

For Janna, performing isn't about proving skill or passing a test. It's about sharing music. We talk about the practical side of recital prep, things like timelines, scheduling and rep, but also about how Janna's studio vision guides every decision she makes about those events. 

Here's my conversation with Janna.
