Description

A musicians life is filled with many stressful situations: passing auditions; rehearsing and performing with difficult partners; sitting for long hours in uncomfortable chairs; going on stage to face audiences large and small; who may or may not be receptive to the performance they are presented. And yet many musicians are able to surmount these looming obstacles with grace and balance; to find satisfaction and artistry in their music and build productive and lasting careers. Indirect Procedures will guide you around these obstacles and along that path to becoming a balanced and successful musician.Based on the work of Frederick Matthias Alexander; this book is a thorough and practical approach to the issues of musicians health and wellbeing. Author Pedro de Alcantara introduces concepts and exercises for musicians to let go of excessive tensions; stay focused; and direct their energies as they handle the challenges of practicing; rehearsing; and performing. Complemented by an extensive; easy-to-use companion website; and working alongside Integrated Practice; this new edition of Indirect Procedures is an invaluable and essential resource for todays musicians to learn to sing; play; and conduct with less effort and stronger results.
