Recenzje

From the Stage to the Studio succeeds well beyond its mission of being a helpful resource for teaching performers. This book is a thoughtful examination of the process of musical learning, self-teaching, and the communication and sharing of musical knowledge between teacher and student. It is highly recommended.
