Sparky Conversations: Journeys in Accessible Creativity & Contemporary Performance with violinist Jane Hackett
In this Sparky Conversation, violinist Jane Hackett will discuss her multi-layered journey with the violin and her focus for driving increased access in classical and contemporary music settings since her diagnosis of FND - Functional Neurological Disorder.
