The staggeringly versatile skill-set of NYC-based Dutch Singer, Educator, Psychologist and Artist-preneur Vivienne Aerts busts myths around the ‘Jill of all trades’ paradigm with a nonchalance that leaves even the most skeptical purist taking a bow, and her protege as co-facilitator of iconic Pianist Kenny Werner’s ‘Effortless Mastery’ irrefutably established.
Assistant Professor at Berklee since 2014 where Werner and Aerts build a new generation of holistic performers at the Effortless Mastery Institute, the Fulbright scholars eclectic ‘experience’ events in collaboration with her husband, renowned pastry chef Ted Steinebach was the root of her multi-disciplinary approach to the making of her new album, ‘Typuhthâng’, which not just features a 100 female musicians from around the globe, but also comes with a bar of bean-to-bar chocolate from Original Beans Chocolate, a company that pro-actively empowers female cacao farmers of Virunga State Park in Congo.
We catch up in this long-form conversation and exclusive listening session, as one of Tapasya Loading's founding guests returns with the fascinating journey that the past three years have been, close on the heels of the aftermath of an Effortless Mastery Weekend-Intensive retreat.
