Flute 360 | Episode 351: "Vision Beyond Sight with Liz Hargest"

In today's episode, Heidi sits down with longtime student, colleague, and dear friend Liz Hargest to explore what it truly means to cultivate artistry, perseverance, and purpose beyond physical sight.

Liz, who has been blind since infancy, shares how she learned flute through Braille music, how she approaches memorization, and how she continues to grow as a musician and teacher well into her 70s.

Her story offers profound insight into resilience, lifelong learning, and the deep internal work that shapes expressive, authentic musicianship. Whether you are navigating obstacles in your own musical journey or simply seeking a renewed sense of clarity and hope, this conversation will meet you where you are.

Main Points:

  • Liz's early story and how blindness shaped her approach to learning and independence
  • How Braille music works, how it is formatted, and what it takes to learn repertoire through touch
  • The true purpose of memorization and how it deepens musical expression
  • How patience, long-term memory, and daily habits strengthen artistic growth
  • What Liz's brain injury taught her about teaching, gratitude, and valuing each day
  • Suzuki philosophy and why listening-based learning creates stronger, more intuitive musicians
  • The importance of teaching the whole child—not just the instrument
  • How perseverance, faith, and purpose continue to shape Liz's artistry and life
