Get to know Béla Fleck before seeing him at North Shore Center on April 24th! This new podcast interview from the Speak Soundly Podcast is out now on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Episode note: Preeminent banjo player Béla Fleck is renowned for his unparalleled skills, adventurous spirit, and musical innovation. He's won 18 Grammy-Awards in nine different fields from bluegrass to classical and according to him, he's defied the odds. A kid from Manhattan who became obsessed with bluegrass music, Béla reflects on the first time he heard the Earl Scruggs' theme song for "The Beverly Hillbillies," how he got his namesake from three classical heavy-hitters, and why it took 9 years to return to the banjo after he fell in love with it at the age of 6. Béla discusses his quick progression on the instrument, how he skipped college to his parents' surprise, and when he realized he had to find his own distinct sound. David inquires how Béla came to musically interact with classical greats like Joshua Bell and Edgar Meyer, as well as jazz legend Chick Corea, while simultaneously shedding his imposter syndrome, and to close it out Béla tells David about the feeling of making time stand still during a performance. #belafleck #banjo #podcast #speaksoundly #davidkrauss #metopera #northshorecenter #skokie #concert Béla Fleck
