As a child, Emile Pandolfi was passionate about playing and creating at the piano.  His passion turned into a life-long career. His story is an inspiration and he serves as a role model to us as well as our students. Emile proves that you CAN carve out a career as a performing artist even if it doesn’t follow the expected path. In this episode, Emile shares how his music-making expanded and has withstood the test of time. Despite massive changes in technology over the past decades–-remember cassette tapes and CDS?--and the squeeze of a global pandemic, Emile continues to overcome and reinvent and stay loyal to his childhood passion and his work.
