"Conquering Imposter Syndrome" - An Interview with Emilio Colón, Professor of Cello at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University

The Cello Sherpa Podcast Host, Joel Dallow, interviews cellist Emilio Colón. Emilio is Professor of Cello at the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University. After getting off to a rocky start with his teacher Janos Starker, Emilio talks about how he felt that he was dead last amongst his peers on the cello, which in turn motivated him to work as hard as he could to prove that he had what it took to be successful. Shortly after graduating from Indiana, Janos Starker called him and invited him back to join the cello faculty of his alma mater, making him the second youngest professor ever selected to teach at the Jacobs School of Music, at the age of 26.
