Resumen del Editor

The Inner Game of music is that which takes place in the mind, played against such elusive opponents as nervousness, self doubt, and fear of failure. Using the same principles of "natural learning" W. Timothy Gallwey developed so successfully for tennis, golf, and skiing and applying them to his own field, noted musician Barry Green shows how to acknowledge and overcome these internal obstacles in order to bring a new quality to the experience and learning of music. It is also ideal for those who don't play an instrument but who feel their appreciation of music will be enhanced if they understand more about the process of playing.

In precise, easy to understand language, Green and Gallwey explain how natural skills can be nurtured and enhanced, and through a series of special exercises they demonstrate the ways in which musicians can achieve exact intonation, artistic phrasing, and improved technique.

Ensemble playing, improvisation, composition and creativity, and listening skills are discussed throughout.

A methodology with a proven track record, this will be invaluable to anyone seriously interested in music, professional or amateur, composer, performer, or an appreciative listener.

Interesting, but not that helpful

Wanted to know about the inner game in music, so decided not to read the original book about tennis. Probably would’ve benefited more from reading the one about Tennis. Anyway that’s the way it goes.

Opened my mind to the inner game principles. How you begin with awareness instead of judgment.

Like the reader. Easy to listen to and understand. I enjoyed the examples of inner game principles given by the author. I'm on my second listen, and I'm absorbing more this time!
