Can you turn a cello to a violin? And other fun musical questions with Amanda Keesmaat, professional cellist!
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">In this incredible episode, Finnegan welcomes his cello-playing friend Brianna as a co-host. Together, they interview the super-talented, super-fun, <strong>professional cellist - Amanda Keesmaat! </strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Listen in as they explore:</span></p> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎻 What a professional musician actually does</span></h3> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Amanda explains what it means to be a professional musician - she plays cello in orchestras, makes videos, records music, travels for concerts, does admin work, and practices… a LOT!</span></p> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎒 How Amanda became a professional cellist </span></h3> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">She began cello at age <strong>4</strong> - after stealing her brother's violin! From there years of practices, studying, and building relationships led her to stages across the world!</span> <span style= "font-size: 12pt;"> </span></p> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎤 Performing on stage</span></h3> <p style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Even the very best musicians - like Amanda - get nervous and make mistakes. The trick: keep going! Playing for others can feel amazing. </span></p> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎼 How orchestras work</span></h3> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Did you know musicians get their music WAYYYY in advance of their shows? Its up to them to perfect their pieces before they come together to practice, practice, practice. No showing up last minute and not prepared. </span></p> <h3><span style="font-size: 12pt;">💿 How a music CD gets made</span></h3> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It takes months to make a CD. Musicians pick music, rehearse, record for days, edit tracks, add artwork to produce amazing sountracks.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎧 <strong>Video game music</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Amanda (and her husband Sean!) have performed for the <strong>Assassin's Creed</strong> video games.</span><br /> <span style="font-size: 12pt;">Yes - real instruments and voices are behind those cool game soundtracks!</span></p> <h2><span style="font-size: 12pt;">💡 <strong>Amanda's Advice for Kids</strong></span></h2> <p style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;"><strong>Practice every day -</strong> you always get out what you put in! Music is everywhere: TV, movies, commercials, games. So keep learning- there are so many fun music jobs out there!</span></p> <p style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">🎉 <strong>Favourite Moments</strong></span></p> <ul> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Brianna calling the cello a "<strong>zello</strong>" when she first started</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;">Listening to Amanda play an amazing piece of music!</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Amanda describing trying to play her cello with a violin bow (spoiler: it did NOT work)</span></li> <li style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style= "font-size: 12pt;">Realizing Amanda is neighbours with a famous children's author!<br /> <br /></span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Stay tuned for the next Finnegan's Finn-tastics adventure! 🎧✨</span></p>
