Which instrument should you play? | Think Like A Musician

About this video

Professional musicians share how they chose their instruments, and what you should consider when choosing what to play. -- "Think Like A Musician" connects you with working musicians who want to help the music-curious and music-passionate hone and share the gift of music with the world. Part interview, part animated course, our first season "Think Like A Performer" features artists sharing their insight on the ins and outs of fine-tuning your instrument and crafting a great performance. Each episode features free supplemental learning materials developed by Education Through Music (https://etmonline.org) — a nonprofit with over 30 years of experience developing classroom-adaptable curriculum for music educators. Directed by Kozmonot Animation Studio. A special thanks to the musicians who provided their insights and expertise for this video.
