Response from Your Audience, Ovations and Encores
includes techniques that professional entertainers and
musicians use to get the very best response from their
audiences. “If you want to reach your audience, if you want to give them a rewarding, entertaining experience they will long remember, if you want to move them from tepid applause to a rousing standing ovation and cries for an encore, then there is much here that will
be of value to you.” Ovations and Encores could be called Stage Presence 101 for Musicians. It is full of valuable information to help the reader become an incredible, vibrant, dynamic performer. “Becoming confident on stage is a study which should be as important to you as learning
an instrument, or learning how to sing or write songs.” Ovations and Encores could also be called Success and Survival 101 for Musicians. It contains “vital information that you will need offstage, to make your time on stage more productive, enjoyable, and rewarding.” Information that includes such topics as life on the road, wardrobe, effects and lighting. Ovations and Encores includes hundreds of examples of great stage presence from real performers, including Garth Brooks, Mariah Carey, the Corrs, Janet Jackson, Sarah McLachlin, the Rolling Stones, Smashing Pumpkins and Talking Heads. All genres of music are represented, from Classical to Country to Jazz, Rock and Rap. Over one hundred songs are cited as examples of the right song to use at the right time to get the right effect. Quite simply, there is nothing else like it available. Written by Everett Reed, and based upon his 20 years of experience as a professional touring musician, Ovations and Encores is required reading for any performer who wants to be the very best.
