Technique, Artistry, Injury, and Recovery | Penelope Roskell
Welcome to the Euterpean Podcast, this is your host Zachary Davies. For this episode I welcome pianist, writer, and professor at Trinity Laban Penelope Roskell. Her most recent book, The Complete Pianist, is a must-read for piano students everywhere; for me, to quote a Chopin student, it has made what was once insurmountable, natural and easy.

Tempo, Cassadó and the Meaning of Music | Benjamin Zander
Welcome to the Euterpean Podcast, this is your host Zachary Davies. For this episode, I had the privilege of speaking to a remarkable guest – conductor, teacher, and founder of both the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra and the Boston Philharmonic Youth Orchestra – Mr. Benjamin Zander. When writing this introduction, it was really hard to know where to start because Ben’s influence on my own music-making began years ago, probably when I was entering my teens. So, needless to say, I haven’t the wo...

Melody Underpins It All | Maggie Herron
In this episode, I welcome pianist and singer-songwriter, the 4X winner of Hawaii's Nā Hōkū Hanohano Award, Maggie Herron. Maggie and I met in 2019, at the jazz-club Lewers Lounge in Hawaii, where she’s a resident musician. From the moment I entered the musical sanctuary, I was deeply impressed by the musicianship and artistry of all the players. And of course, being the jazzophile I am, I was intrigued to learn of Maggie’s musical upbringing, her tastes, what she thinks of this artist or tha...

We discuss this music, its nature, its instrumental fl...
