This is a game changer for musicians of all levels! Used by students and professionals in 120 countries, nkoda is rapidly becoming the Spotify for sheet music with it's enormous resource of sheet music and simple access which is immediately available for all subscribers!    With the ability to annotate your scores, add layers to personalise the areas of the music you want to mark, create playlists, upload your own music and share your score and markings with not only one person, but the whole world, and much much more, the future has finally caught up with the sheet music world.  In 'Talking Flutes Extra' this week, Jean-Paul speaks to Lorenzo Brewer, the founder and creative force behind nkoda about how he started with this innovative project and also how this app really does 'change the game' and enables musicians around the world to no longer need to carry huge amounts of sheet music and books with them.

87. nkoda - the Spotify for sheet music - Lorenzo Brewer

This week, I'm interviewing 3 people who are making real change in the classical music business. Today, I talk with Aubrey Bergauer, the former Executive Director of the California Symphony, and Lorenzo Brewer, the founder of Nkoda, the Spotify of sheet music. We'll talk about the simple yet radical changes Bergauer made during her tenure, and Brewer's belief in the accessibility of sheet music. I think these interviews will appeal to anyone interested in change, the future, and music itself.  https://medium.com/@AubreyBergauer nkoda.com

Classical Music Changemakers Week: Aubrey Bergauer + Lorenzo Brewer

What you'll hear:  Coming of age with streaming - how Spotify influenced his entrepreneurial venture The true mindset needed for *actual* entrepreneurship (hint: it’s likely not taught in any class) The reactions from the publishing industry - this answer surprised me How a digital music app can actually help the paper music publishing companies - something I hadn’t thought of The most important part of partnership-based businesses - the key to creating long-term relationships Dealing with rejection when raising money - Lorenzo gives the real talk about this - and the parallels to raising money for a nonprofit ... And much more!  I want to thank Ficks Music for sponsoring Crushing Classical.
