I speak with Yosuke Kawasaki, the wonderful Concertmaster of the National Arts Centre Orchestra in Ottawa, Canada (of which I am a member). He talks about the challenges of staying grounded during this pandemic, his experiences studying with Dorothy Delay at both Julliard and Aspen festival, the inspriation he found in many of his peers growing up, and the conversation circles around to his role as concertmaster, and advice for young colleagues playing auditions.
