We have the honor of presenting a fascinating conversation with world-famous pianist Seymour Bernstein (https://seymourbernstein.com/). You may know Seymour as the subject of the widely acclaimed 2015 documentary Seymour, an Introduction, directed by Ethan Hawke. The film tells Seymour’s inspiring story of abandoning his solo concert career at age 50, and, at the end of the documentary, performing again in his 80s. Yet, as we discuss in this interview, there are other ways to tell this story. Now in his mid-90s (he turns 96 this April), Seymour reflects on his decision to leave solo performing as a necessary refocusing, following his creative impulse to compose, write his books, and study music. 

In his 90s, Seymour has been busy making new recordings, continuing to teach, and even becoming a viral YouTube sensation, releasing videos with the music education streaming service ToneBase (https://www.youtube.com/results?searc..., as well as on his channel (https://youtube.com/@seymourbernstein. He shares with us deep reflections on following your intuition in musical interpretation and in life.
