4.0 out of 5 stars
A fresh perspective on making music,
By Karen (Colorado) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Confident Music Performance: The Art of Preparing (Paperback)
I would recommend this book to anyone who plays music because it offers a fresh perspective on performance. I have played the violin for over 20 years and until I read this book I still got nervous before every performance. The most valuable lesson in this book was how to take the focus off of myself and how I was playing and instead focus on bringing the music to life as a service to the composer and my audience. It may seem simple, but the author presents the information in a beautiful and convincing manner. I'm now buying a copy for my sister who is also a violinist.

Takes your musical vision beyond technique,
By A Customer
This review is from: Confident Music Performance: The Art of Preparing (Paperback)
If you're a musician stuck in the technical aspects of music making and want a broader, enriched view, this book will definitely expand your horizons. The auther reminds us that we may feel alone when performing but really we're not. You, your instrument, the composer, and the audience are all discussed to highlight what each wants and needs to get out of music making. This has permanently changed my view on any musical performance-whether I'm participating or not.
