Review
Musicians face an intensely competitive orchestral job market and the reality that a three-minute audition can determine a life-long career. Don Greene's Audition Success gives young musicians a concrete set of skills to achieve the concentrated focus needed in these critical moments. -- Michael Tilson Thomas, Music Director of the San Francisco Symphony and Artistic Director of the New World Symphony
Audition Success is a must read for all musicians seeking professional careers. -- Julie Landsman, Principal Horn, Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, Faculty, The Julliard School.
Dr. Greene is a wonderful teacher. His words of wisdom are always insightful and illuminating. Audition Success really opened my eyes to a new way of auditioning and music making. It's an indispensable tool for any musician. -- Tom Sherwood, Principal Percussionist, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
Before working with Dr. Greene, I was too often preoccupied with the what-if's while I was playing. However, through his methods of centering and visualization, among others, my concentration and sense of focus has since drastically improved my performance on many levels. This book is a must-have for anyone who wants to beat their own mind-games! -- Julia Pilant, Principal Horn, Syracuse Symphony, Musician of the Year
Don Greene taught me and can teach you how to audition at a far superior level to get the job. When you are ready and willing to really improve your audition strategy, READ THIS BOOK!!!! -- Michelle Wrighte, Opera Singer, Met Regional Competition Winner, Chicago Lyric Opera
The key, I discovered, is not getting rid of the things that happen in stressful situations, because that's unrealistic, but instead learning how to work with them positively. This man really is incredible. His teaching... has really helped me pull everything into my own sphere of control. Working with him has been one of the most productive experiences of my life. -- Pat Gonsalves, trumpet, Oberlin student
