What did you learn from them regarding the successful navigation of a career in music? What are their recommended approaches to performance? Identify the single most useful bit of advice you gained from either of them.   VIBRATO Provide a brief history of the use of vibrato and the changing attitudes toward it.  Other than for historical reasons, why would one not want to use vibrato, and why is it fine in other circumstances?  As a modern performer, how can you negotiate between your knowledge of the historical use of vibrato and the stylistic misinformation that generally prevails among your colleagues?   PERFORMANCE STYLES Why is it preferable to be aware of historical performance styles?  Why does it matter?  Does one size fit all?  If so, why.  If not, why not?  As performers and composers, do we have it easier or more difficult than our predecessors?  How does the study of performance styles close the gap between how it was done then and how it’s done now.  Is this necessarily a good thing?  If so, why.  If not, why not?  What is a historically aware performer to do when your applied teacher or fellow musicians do not value historical awareness?
