PERFORMANCE COACHING

Musicians in the Public Eye

Some pressures are hard to talk about when you’re at the top of your profession.

JONATHON HEYWARD

CONDUCTOR & MUSIC DIRECTOR - BALTIMORE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA

International soloists, conductors and orchestral principals often face pressures that go well beyond the music. They can be hard to talk about in the professional world, where vulnerability isn’t always easy to show.

This is a confidential space to think out loud about whatever is getting in the way, with someone who understands the music profession from the inside.

Some musicians work with me over a sustained period; others come at a particular moment in their career, whether before a big decision, after a difficult experience, or simply when something needs thinking through with someone outside their professional circle. There is no fixed format. The work follows what you need.

What we can explore together

  • Managing performance anxiety

  • Protecting your time and energy

  • Navigating relationships with agents, managers and others in your professional world

  • Making important work and career decisions

  • Living with public scrutiny: reviews, media and what that asks of you personally

  • Managing your public presence and protecting your private life
