Disruptors Finn Barnaby | The Experiment: Piano Improv Meets Podcast Innovation
In his most experimental episode ever, Rob interviews pianist Finn Barnaby to answer commonly asked questions on the show - but with a twist. Instead of speaking his responses, Finn expresses himself solely through music compositions on his piano. What unfolds is a highly entertaining glimpse into Finn's creative mind and talent as a musician. From commenting on the state of affairs in the UK to sharing brutal life lessons, Rob and Finn also discuss all things music, including mastering an instrument, the role of AI, and the dilemma between creative expression and commercial viability that all artists face.
Finn Reveals:
- Motivation is key to mastering a musical instrument - natural talent helps but drive matters more
- The importance of understanding music theory
- The opportunities AI presents for musicians
- Why word-of-mouth reputation matters
- Why the right teaching and guidance makes learning piano achievable
- Why improvisation skills separate human musicians from AI
