Effortless Mastery: Liberating the Master Musician Within [Paperback] Review

I am only about 3/4s through this book, and I couldn't be more enthusiastic. I happen to love Kenny Werner's piano playing--always heard him and thought "Well, I'll never sound like THAT!"-- only toread his book and have him address this very attitude with unbelievableaccuracy.I've already changed the way that I practice my instruments, andI just put some of his approach to work in a 3 day recording session withsome players that I admire very much. While I had couple of briefself-doubt meltdowns, the whole experience was so much easier than I hadeven hoped for, and yes, even "effortless" at times. I know thatchanging my perspective, and my expectations made a huge difference in myability to enjoy the moment, and as a result, the music that came forth. Iam recommending this book for anyone who has ever played a musicalinstrument--at ANY level--and stopped, even if it was a long time ago. Thisbook explains what might have gotten in your way of the music-makingexperience. I also want to recommend it to those of us who playprofessionally but are either frustrated with our own progress or just notenjoying it as much as we did when we were young. There's no reason musiccan't be that fun again.
