I wanted to share with you a link to a radio interview that I did, talking about the many wonderful violinists I've had the privilege of interviewing over the years as editor of Violinist.com.
Here's the link: A new book of interviews of top violinists from the editor of Violinist.com (WVXU - Cincinnati)
After being the "interviewer" for so long, I was a little nervous to be the "interviewee"! I was in great hands, though, with the easy-talking and deep-voiced Mark Perzel, host of Cincinnati Edition on Cincinnati Public Radio (WVXU). In our conversation we talk about interviewing Hilary Hahn, Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, Sarah Chang, Anne Akiko Meyers, David Garrett, Ruggiero Ricci, Lara St. John, Midori, Aaron Rosand, and about the new book that contains many of those interviews, called Violinist.com Interviews, Vol. 1. We also talk about the history of Violinist.com and about the upcoming International Violin Competition of Indianapolis. Why Cincinnati? It's home to my parents and sister's family, and while visiting this summer I did a little book-signing recital.
I hope you enjoy the interview; please share the link if you do!
