Episode 10: "You Can Recover New Dreams" with Dr Brian Harker

Send us a textThis may be the most IMPORTANT interview I have done YET. As much as we all want to keep playing our instruments and recover, the reality for some people is that it may not happen for them. Some of you may decide that your injury is the end of a BEAUTIFUL chapter of your life.That is OK. We are all on our own path! Listen with me as Dr Brian Harker shares his TEN YEAR JOURNEY through trying to navigate issues with the nerves in his teeth as a budding jazz trumpet player, and how he eventually found FULFILLMENT through musicology and jazz history. There IS FULFILLMENT in music to be found OUTSIDE your instrument! This is an episode that NEEDS to be SHARED with EVERYONE, there is not a single musician who would not benefit from Dr. Harker’s story. TRUST THE PROCESS! Takeaways:-Performance injuries can lead to unexpected career transitions.It is important to stay connected to music even if you can no longer perform.-Being open to new possibilities and finding meaning outside of performing can lead to fulfillment.-Musicology offers a different perspective on music and allows for a deeper understanding of its historical and cultural context.Learn more about Dr Brian Harker here: https://music.byu.edu/directory/brian-harker-----------------------------------------------------------If you are a musician going through injury, a music educator trying to help one, or a musician just trying to make it in life, then you need to listen to EVERY episode of this up and coming show!
