PATH 01 / A FOUR-WEEK PATH INTO THE SYMPHONY
Don’t finish a checklist. Grow a pair of symphonic ears.
The real challenge is not finding more pieces. It is knowing what to follow on a first listen, how performances differ and how not to get lost over an hour. Four weeks, one skill at a time.

- 04
Biographies explain a life but not what to hear right now
