The Musician Centric Podcast
Two professional violists, Liz O'Hara and Stephanie Knutsen, explore diverse perspectives in the music field through conversations together and with friends. Whether gaining fresh insights from industry innovators or laughing their way through a show like Mozart in the Jungle, Liz and Steph hope to inspire musicians, particularly freelancers, to feel a sense of agency in their lives.

Our guest today is violist Alice Ping! Based in Los Angeles, Alice makes her career as a freelancer and teacher, performing with a wide variety of musical acts live, in session recordings, and notably as one of the talented string musicians on NBC’s The Voice! Alice is not only an accomplished and hard-working musician, but she does it all while living with not one, but two chronic illnesses. She is very open and vulnerable about her treatments, the incessant monitoring and the daily life of a musician dealing with these ‘invisible’ diseases.
