Blurring Lines Between Performing and Teaching, Common Causes of Piano Injury, Unpacking Jazz Piano Pedagogy in 2023 and Mistakes to Avoid in Audience Building

NYC-based, multiple-award winning composer, pianist an entrepreneur Noah Kellman, while most well known as the curator of a 100,000 plus online community of budding Jazz piano students and aficionados, is also the unassuming product of a lesser known and stunningly brave story of a young boy who has fought an (ongoing) battle with physical challenges which, at some of it's most intense phases in the past, has seen him seek the assistance of friends and family to accomplish tasks as simple as writing a school test or changing out of clothes. Even while being gaslighted for not having his 'priorities straight' when intent on saving the best of his physical energies for his deepest passion: playing the piano.

 

In this long-form conversation, we dive deep into the new paradigm of blurred lines between performance and pedagogy, understanding the significance of physical strength as a musician and best practices on audience-building in an age of viral videos, quick-fix campaigns and paid social media followers.
