4. Kyle deTarnowsky: The Validity Comes from Yourself

In this episode, Kyle deTarnowsky and I talk about how music is like baking and how important it is to find joy of expression without getting stuck on how "good" you are, though he's secretly quite good.

Quotes:
"If you express yourself in any way through music; you're a musician."

Creator's Challenge: Music Meets Movement
Connect with something deeper than yourself. Take a phrase of music that you connect with emotionally and physically connect to it. Sing it. Play it on the piano. Dance it.

Bio:
Musician: composer, arranger, orchestrator, music director, instrumentalist (piano, woodwinds)
My guest, Kyle deTarnowsky, is a musician of all kinds. He's a composer, arranger, orchestrator, music director and instrumentalist. Kyle has worked on music that has been featured on TV shows such as Lost Nashville, the Academy Awards, and such delightful titles as Cats and Dogs, The Revenge of Kitty Galore and Go West Happy Cow. Also the Academy Awards.
If you missed that part. He's a music director and plays for cabarets and music theater shows all around Los Angeles. He's a talented composer who works regularly in short films, and I was lucky enough to have him compose the Creator's Cafe theme music when he's not in rehearsal or teaching at one of the two colleges he teaches at. 
Kyle can be found composing his original musical on "Murder, She Wrote" based on the Angela Lansbury TV series. He is as delightful as his projects make him sound.
