Mr. Heymann is right of course, but this has been the case for quite a long time. I was surprised, for example to read fairly recently that Marc-Andre Hamelin took a teaching position at the New England Conservatory. Earl Wild taught most of his adult
life, as did Bolet. Heifetz taught at UCLA and USC for many years. The list of well known performers who supplemented their income by teaching would surprise people. It may also be that earning a living solely by performing is highly stressful with
all the traveling, hotels, practicing on the road etc. that it’s too much for some especially past a certain age.
