Invited speaker for the New England Piano Teachers Association. Sarah discusses the importance of restoring the art of improvisation lost in the 20th century. Connecting to a spirit of playfulness, inner child, and unconditional acceptance are ways in which one can overcome the initial fear of improvising.
