Stories? Questions? Thoughts? TEXT us here!
Liz and Steph have a delightful conversation with violist CAROL RODLAND! Carol enjoys a distinguished international career as a concert and recording artist whose playing has been described as “larger than life, sweetly in tune and infinitely variegated”. Ms Rodland is also currently professor of viola and chamber music at the Julliard School, where she herself studied with the godmother of the viola, the incomparable Karen Tuttle. We talk about her full-circle tour of Europe and the US, studying and teaching with viola giants Karen Tuttle and Kim Kashkashian. What’s it like to be besties with Kim K? How does her recent injury help her teaching? How does community service fit into her busy schedule? We dig into these subjects and way more with Carol, who’s such a gracious guru - committed to giving each student exactly what they need to reach their potential.
