During this moment, many artists are creating engaging online content. Here are two projects that artists’ post videos to daily! #DailyBeethoven offers a daily comfort and #DailyMultiphonics teaches us something new every day!
Celebrated pianist Jonathan Biss shares his lifelong engagement with the Beethoven Sonatas by posting #DailyBeethoven videos to his Facebook fan page. 2020 marks the celebration of Beethoven’s 250th birthday, which is being celebrated worldwide.

What is a multiphonic? Bassoons have them? Bassoonist Ben Roidl-Ward shares a different bassoon multiphonic every day on his Youtube channel. A multiphonic is an extended technique on a monophonic musical instrument in which several notes are produced at once. Whether you’re a composer wishing to deepen your knowledge about the bassoon or simply curious what this all sounds like, check out his channel!
📣 Free Masterclass for Artists
If you’ve enjoyed this conversation, I’d love to share something I created that expands on many of the ideas we explore here on Classical Post.
I recorded a free Masterclass designed specifically for classical musicians who want to:
✅ Book more concerts
✅ Increase their performance fees
✅ Build visibility with presenters, agents, and collaborators
This is the same visibility strategy I’ve used in my work with artists at Gold Sound Media—approaches that have helped them land major engagements and grow their careers in meaningful, measurable ways.
📩 Enter your email below and I’ll send you the link to watch the Masterclass on YouTube.
It’s practical, actionable, and designed for artists who are ready to stop waiting and start being seen.
