The Trust Economy · On-demand masterclass

You can play. What makes someone willing to recommend you?

Being a great player doesn’t always translate into getting calls or finding work. If you’re not sure what to do next, this masterclass explores the relationships, preparation, and communication behind a musician’s reputation.

I draw on my experience on Broadway and beyond to explain why people feel comfortable putting your name forward, and what you can pay attention to before the next opportunity arrives.
