Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is an excellent book: one of the finest methods for students and teachers to explore the world of music. The ideas are presented brilliantly. The games in the volume are serious and valuable." Lincoln Center "Bruce Adolphe has provided a valuable new tool for aspiring musicians and beleaguered music teachers. Beyond traditional method books and rehearsal techniques, The Mind's Ear can help students develop vital performance skills drawn from other areas of performing arts." -- B.J. Adler, Education Director, Young Audiences, Inc.
