SUMMARY:In Conversation with Daniel Heifetz: 30th Anniversary Lecture Series
DESCRIPTION:We’re kicking off our 30th Anniversary Lecture Series with someone whose career embodies everything we believe about music. \n\n\n\n\nDaniel Heifetz: world-renowned violinist\, master teacher\, and an artist who has spent 30+ years thinking deeply about what it means to communicate through music. \nHis message? Don’t try to imitate the greats. The path to artistry isn’t about copying Yo-Yo Ma or Itzhak Perlman. It’s about becoming so comfortable in your own skin that your instrument becomes a breathing part of your body\, and your unique voice can finally emerge. \nThis is the conversation we’re bringing to Takoma Park as we kick off our 30th Anniversary Lecture Series. \n📅 Sunday\, April 19 | 5:00-7:00pm\n📍 Potter Violins in Takoma Park\n🎟️ $15 in advance\, $20 at the door (cash only) – All proceeds benefit The Washington Conservatory of Music \nGet Tickets Here
