LINDSAY ARTKOP: The Rhythm of Education
#015 - The Rhythm of Education | Lindsay Artkop
Today’s show has a special twist. Usually our guests have anywhere between 5 and 30 years of China experience under their belts, and those conversations yield information and insights that you can only get with a lot of time spent on the ground. But my guest this week is unique in many ways, and only one of them is that she just got home from her very FIRST China trip...
My guest today is Lindsay Artkop. Lindsay is a professional drummer educated at the prestigious Berklee School of Music, where she earned a B.A in Professional Music with concentrations in Drum Set Performance and Music Business. She began playing drums at age 6, and though still a young woman, she has already distinguished herself in the world of performance, recording, and drum education in the US. And thanks to her recent whirlwind tour of Dalian, Zhuhai, Macau and Beijing, she can now add China to the list of places she has taken her Drum Clinic Tour to. In this episode, Lindsay talks about the unique challenges of teaching in such a different culture than what she’s used to, and she shares the lessons she took away from her experience that she feels will last her a lifetime.
In addition to her schedule of recording and performing, she also has drum students who study with her in Los Angeles as well as around the world, by Skype. Lindsay's full bio is available at the link below; check it out to learn more about her professional work, and to learn from and enjoy her insights as a first-time visitor to the Middle Kingdom, I hope you will enjoy the interview.
Okay! Don’t forget that if you’d like to learn more about Lindsay or the show, contact me, or support the podcast in any way, links to all of that are available in the show notes. Now, please enjoy my interview with Lindsay Artkop!
