New. Excerpt: "In this volume of the LIFE ENERGY IN MUSIC series, our theme is: "As in life, so in music." It could also be: "As in music, so in life." You will find that so many problems which affect musicians are common to us all. In the musician's framework it is often just more obvious. Problems as varies as relationships with self, with authority figures, with nature, and with the composer's pulse come to light. Of utmost importance is to study how the musician relates to others and to the world. Difficulties here affect, and are revealed in the music-from early childhood traumata to today's argument with a spouse. "Like all art, by its very nature music cannot be kept private. It is to be given. Whether you want to give, and how truthfully and completely and freely, determines the life energy in you music and in you life. In so many ways the relationship of a musician with the music passed on to him, with his instrument, and with the audience, reveals a great deal about him. Therefore any approach to helping a musician must be absolutely holistic. The nature of music being what it is, when we help him we help everyone."
