Hello everyone!

An hour and twelve minutes episode!!! I know, it's long. But if you are a music teacher, music educator, tutor and conductor, music student, especially if you want to bring your musical and artistic expression to its maximum impact potential, you simply cannot afford not to listen to this episode in full! I am sure this will be the one-hour-and-twelve-minutes best spent listening to a podcast!

The Musethica project was cofounded by Avri Levitan and Carmen Marcuello in Zaragoza, Spain. The project by now has grown exponentially and attracted a global audience. Avri was even invited to give a TED Talk about this project. According to its web page, the Musethica project "is an education method enabling exceptionally gifted musicians and their tutors to improve their interpretative skills and to develop their inspiration, listening, and musical abilities. The method has a strong and direct social impact, providing society with live concerts of highest quality."

Check out their page and get involved, and if you can, support them to bring world class concerts to social groups that traditionally have limited opportunities to benefit from the transformative power of music.

Put on your headphones, get inspired and until the next episode!

Welcome to Episode 12 of the impact.arte podcast!

In this episode I am pleased to introduce you to Chantal Balestri. An accomplished piano soloist and international music professional, Chantal has taught at universities in North America and Europe. She is also the co-founder of the Lunigiana Music Festival. This music festival's mission is to provide young talented musicians from all around the world with an opportunity to be inspired by world-renowned musicians and gain additional knowledge of the music industry and how to develop a career in it. The festival aims to attract young musicians from every corner in the world, no matter of geographical and financial barriers.

Check out the festival's web page and hopefully you will be motivated to get involved!

I hope you enjoy the conversation with Chantal and I look forward to reconnect with you at the next episode of the impact.arte podcast.

In this episode I have the pleasure to talk to a talented Italian violinist, Rosita Tristano, about her approach to finding a balanced and mindful mind-body connection when it comes to practicing an instrument.

Rosita tells us about her journey and how she found Yoga teachings also useful for her violin practice and life in general. Rosita also mentions why we all need to be able to find some rest from our inner chat whenever needed, especially before and during an instrument practice session, and the many benefits of body awareness for music and any other activities we engage in.

If you are studying an instrument, or even if you are a professional musician already, I am sure you will find Rosita's practical advice quite helpful and motivating.

You can find Rosita and get in touch with her on Instagram @rositatristano.

Take care and I'll meet you again at the next episode!
