Change is something that can happen in any career and being a musician is no exception. Transitioning from one period of life or career to another can be challenging, especially in music where there may be internal and external pressures to navigate.
In this session with Katherine Zeserson, Dr Like Aldridge-Waddon and Britten Pears Arts, we’ll be looking at life transitions including how we stay mentally well during periods of change, from having an injury and not being able to play, to retirement, a relationship ending or moving away. We will explore strategies and techniques to help manage life’s transitions and allow for reflection and questions.
