Today, Maggie Martin talks with Allyson Wells who, like her father, became a musician. Her father, Arnold Brown, played viola and owned a piano store when she was a child. She shares stories of growing up around dozens of pianos, playing for customers, and her father letting her pluck the strings on his viola when he played Pop Goes the Weasel.
Those experiences led her to pursue music as a career herself. Today, she teaches composition, music theory and piano.
