Recenzje

Savvidou's book provides today's teachers a broad, comprehensive perspective of wellness that recognizes the importance of dealing with the 'whole person' that walks into our studios. It is an especially helpful and thorough resource to which studio teachers can turn for specific guidance on a broad and diverse range of practical topics. Especially notable is her identifying teachers as a student's 'first line of defense,' helping students through the many challenges impacting them today... This book deserves a prominent place in every musician's and music school's library.
