I truly enjoyed this book. It reminded me why I still consider myself a musician (though I rarely play anymore). I'm inspired to rediscover my own "songline," the story of who I am as revealed through the music I love.
My only criticism is that sometimes the flow of the writing is uneven, but that is to be expected when two rather different perspectives and voices try to join together. Each individual voice is strong, but together their differences sometimes impinge on the harmony. Still, all in all, the underlying message of the song comes through.
My favorite quotation from the book: "whenever music touches us deeply, the potential for transformation exists. What we think and what we perceive about the world and about ourselves can change. What music calls to your restless heart? Where in music does your soul encounter an aspect of reality that shatters your complacency or your fear?" (p. 174-175)
