Hi Mr. Askland,
My name is *name edited* and I am currently a sophomore in high school and I’m studying to major in piano. My dream one day is to play the piano/conduct/ and musical direct on Broadway. I was wondering could you possibly give me any advice that could help me achieve my goal.
Thank you so much

Good question.
- Play your ass off.
- Be nice to people.
- Find people that are doing what you want to do, and find out how they got there.
- Take responsibility for things not going perfect and figure out how to keep it from happening again.
- Do not join a cover band, play private parties, weddings or casuals.
- Be nice to people.
- Play your ass off.
Pretty simple, huh?
If you play your ass off, do you also dispense with the piano bench? How will you sit? 😉
