46: 3 Reasons Why I Think You Need to Listen to Next Week’s Episode
Hey there, it’s Benjamin Harding. Welcome to Inside the Taubman Approach. We’re stepping into a brand-new season of the podcast, and it’s a thrilling time for us here at the Golandsky Institute. Why, you ask? Because next week, September 10th, Edna Golandsky’s highly anticipated book is hitting the shelves! Have you reserved your copy yet? If not, now’s the time—trust me, it’s an incredible read. https://www.ednagolandsky.com/taubman-approach-book
So, today’s episode is titled “3 Reasons Why I Think You Need to Listen to Next Week’s Episode.” And let me tell you, you’re not going to want to miss this.
Reason Number 1:
Next week, we have a very special guest on the podcast—drum roll, please—Edna Golandsky herself! Whenever we get the chance to hear from our master teachers at the Golandsky Institute, it’s a moment to treasure. Edna’s contributions have been foundational. Without her, this institute wouldn’t exist, and the Taubman Approach might have remained a footnote in the history of piano pedagogy. This is a rare opportunity to gain insight directly from one of the pillars of our field.
Reason Number 2:
Edna will be diving into why she decided to write this book. You’ll get an exclusive look into her motivations and the inspiration behind it. It’s not every day that you hear from the author about the journey and thought process that led to such a significant work. If you’ve ever wondered what drove her to pen this book, this episode will answer that and more.
Reason Number 3:
We’re also going to get some insights that aren’t in the book. The Taubman Approach is a living, evolving body of knowledge. It’s shaped by its practitioners and the ongoing exploration of its principles. Edna will share some fresh perspectives and additional insights that you won’t find in the book, giving you even more value and understanding of the Taubman Approach.
So mark your calendars and tune in next week. This is an episode packed with invaluable insights and a deep dive into the heart of the Taubman Approach.
Thanks for joining me today. Until next time, keep exploring and keep playing.
