The Mastery of Music contains many charming and thought-provoking anecdotes, but the work as a whole is weighed down by an excess of platitudes, pseudoscience, and self-promotion. ( ) I picked up this book, began reading about George Plimpton and Leonard Bernstein (poor George), and never stopped reading. Green's interviews with various musicians to determine if one can achieve mastery of music are wonderful. I have learned much from this book, and my musicianship has improved greatly. I enjoy making music now more than ever. Barry Green's book is one of the best I have ever read about the mysteries of performance. In particular, he is to be commended for embracing all musics, not just purely classical. The advice here is inspiring for any musician. I have read the book in its entirety, and have reread several passages and chapters again and again. Bravo to Barry! for such a wonderful book. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
The Inner Game of Music, the breakout hit that became a standard primer in the music world, has taught thousands of musicians--professionals and amateurs alike--how to overcome self-consciousness and stage fright and to recapture a youthful, almost effortless capacity to learn. Now, in his follow-up book, The Mastery of Music, Barry Green turns his expert hand to the artistic qualities that make an extraordinary musician. Culling advice from dozens of interviews with legends including Joshua Bell, Dave Brubeck, Jeffrey Kahane, Bobby McFerrin, Christopher Parkening, Doc Severinsen, Frederica von Stade, the Harlem Boys Choir, and the Turtle Island String Quartet, he reveals that it's not enough to have a cerebral and emotional connection to the notes. Green hows how musical excellence, exhibited by true virtuosos, requires a mastery of ten unique qualities of the soul and the human spirit, such as confidence, passion, discipline, creativity, and relaxed concentration, and he discusses specific ways in which all musicians, composers, and conductors can take their skills to higher levels. He carefully incorporates all instruments and techniques in his rejuvenating discussions, inspiring the stifled student to have fun again and the over-rehearsed performer to rediscover the joy of passionate expression. Essential reading for every musician, The Mastery of Music strikes a beautiful new chord. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
