What are Music Lessons Really About? Interview with Bella Issakova

In this episode, I interview Bella Issakova who has been a violin tutor for the last 30 years and has had a relationship with tutoring going back to when she was 4 and a half learning music in Bulgaria. She has a rich and deep relationship with tutoring in general and violin lessons specifically. I interviewed her because I've learned a great deal about tutoring itself from watching the intentional way she approaches it. And, as will become clear, violin tutoring is about way more than the violin.
