I love Crushing Classical. Interesting guests — empathic thoughtful host; Jennet has wonderful insights — I especially like her mini-sodes. I love the premise of the show: Ask people trained to find opportunities for beauty in every phrase how they make a living — you’ll get some inspiring answers!
I’ve had the pleasure of knowing and working with Jennet for quite a few years. I have since moved from the town we shared, so I don’t get to chat with her as often anymore. BUT I can tell you, listening to her in this podcast is exactly how she would be if you were sitting in her living room, drinking coffee. She is inquisitive, articulate, and knows how to bring out the best in her guests. Lovely person and time well spent listening to her every week.
This podcast is a MUST for any modern day classical musician!! Seriously, if you’re looking for inspiration, listen to this pod.
One episode in and I’m hooked! I can’t wait to binge listen the rest of this, so valuable for any musician.
I look forward to this podcast every week! Each guest's story is inspiring and I always jot down a few actionable ideas to apply to my own career. This is the inside scoop on what real classical musicians are doing to create art, support themselves, and make an impact in the world. I wish I had heard these stories when I was an undergrad--what a difference that would have made! So grateful that the next generation of musicians has this incredible resource right from the start
