Description
In “Go For It ...Surviving the Challenges of Becoming an Artist,” we have a rare invitation to explore the mind of a young jazz violinist, from the very beginning of her life to the present moment and beyond. We are taken on a journey through childhood, through heartache and loss, through moments of success and accomplishment, periods of uncertainty, creative blockage and inner challenge. Within these stories and memories we’re also taken on a journey of our own, a journey that inspires and uplifts us, and asks us tough creative and spiritual questions. Both candid and passionate, “Go For It” reignites our love of the arts and gives us advice and confidence that fuels our own creative paths.
