Violinist Annie Fullard speaks to online editor Davina Shum about how she teaches collaborative skills in her capacity as a chamber music teacher at various institutes and also as a member of the Cavani Quartet.  She is the co-author of the upcoming book The Art of Collaboration: Chamber Music Rehearsal Techniques & Teambuilding which will be published by Oxford University Press this autumn. Listen to why she believes curiosity and openness is key to creating a good chamber musician – and person – as well as why she thinks we should live in a chamber music world.
