| 5/25/26 |  If I Had to Start Now, How Would I Build a Music Career? | If you want to build a successful career in music, this is not the 1990s, nor is it even the 2010s, when the path was much different. A few things never go out of style, such as practicing well and networking, but nearly everything else is different from when I began my journey nearly 30 years ago. My definition of a successful career is modest: I've been able to pay all of my bills and have enough money left over for moderate enjoyment without doing even a single job that didn't involve my music studies over the past 26 years. There's so much different now, and this requires new tactics to succeed. Musicianship Mastery is formerly known as The Musician Toolkit.

| 5/18/26 |  Stop Forgetting Music You Worked So Hard to Learn | Why is it that you stop practicing on a piece or a technique, and most of it is gone within a year if not a few months? That's been true for me too. However, there are plenty of exceptions - pieces I could ignore for over a year and sit down to play from memory like I'd practiced it yesterday. In this episode, I talk about what the pieces that stick all have in common versus the ones that just disappear, and what you can do to make sure you never again lose any music you've spent time learning that you want to keep.

| 3/30/26 |  Debunking 10 Stereotypes About Musicians | Have you ever heard that classical musicians only like classical music, or that composers are free spirits who are guided by the muse, or that they all love to stay up late at night and get up late in the morning?

Music isn't about what you know in your head. It's about what you know with your hands or your voice or whatever touches your instrument.
