Steve Martin & The Philadelphia Orchestra

By Aaron Tyler on June 28, 2020

Grammy-Award winning musician and actor Steve Martin appeared in a unique collaboration with The Philadelphia Orchestra as part of the HearNOW: At-Home Gala event with Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin. Accompanied by members of The Philadelphia Orchestra, Martin performed a boisterous version of his song “Office Supplies,” from his most recent recording, “The Long-Awaited Album.”

ArtistWorks students will quickly recognize trumpet master David Bilger and clarinet master Ricardo Morales from the bunch, with David sharing prime real estate with Steve in the video’s thumbnail. ArtistWorks is dedicated to providing anyone, anywhere in the world with affordable, interactive access to some of the greatest music teachers in the world. The mission is to “Teach the World Music.” ArtistWorks’ patented Video Exchange® Learning Platform connects master teachers with enthusiastic players in an industry-unique social online learning environment where each interaction becomes a learning experience for all.

In 2008, former AOL executive David Butler set out to finally master jazz guitar. With no acceptable teachers in his area, he and Patricia Butler eventually built a revolutionary online platform that enables anyone with an Internet connection to get ongoing, personal feedback from hand-selected virtuoso teachers, on their own schedule, at their own pace.

Today, ArtistWorks, LLC. hosts over 50,000 video lessons, features 35 teachers and has taught tens of thousands of students from over 80 countries.
