On the second episode of Tacet No More, Joe and Yumi welcome violinist and citizen artist Vijay Gupta to the show. They cover: finding and changing your “why,” building genuine spaces of exchange with communities, cognitive dissonance between orchestral stages and the surrounding community, changing your role and remaining curious, and creating new systems of trust and flexibility.
