Hello, 2017! To start off this new year we are joined by Tom Burritt, Director of Percussion Studies at UT, Austin. Tom is known as a marimba soloist and percussionist for the twice GRAMMY-nominated choir Conspirare. Additionally, his video-based episodic Axiom TV was one of the first dives into the combination of classical percussion and new technology.
We talk about the details of his IP mallets, Joseph Schwantner, the "10,000 hour rule" of mastery, being a student for life, and "grit;" he also answers several questions from Facebook.
Watch here. Listen below.
