When I was younger and taking unsteady steps on the path toward professional music, I had plenty of people around me who had plenty of opinions. When it came to the topic of selecting an instrument, though, I felt like I was in an information desert. How do I decide? What does it mean to have a dark or a bright sound? How important is the bow? How much money do I spend? While my teachers were able to provide opinions on what they did or didn’t like, I wish I had a guide who could really help me sort through some of those questions from the very start.
Then came the unseen part of making a career in music. Should I teach? How much? How can I get better at auditioning? How do I change jobs? Depending on who I asked, the advice could be anything from “Change careers” to “stop doing anything else except practicing.”
