The Musician's Breath: The Role of Breathing in Human Expression - Hardcover
Examining breath in its role as the “delivery system” for ideas in musical performance, this provocative book makes a compelling case for the power of submitting oneself to its miracles. The study is divided into two sections—the first discussing the “why” of breathing and the second providing the “how” with practical applications for singers, instrumentalists, and conductors. Unique perspectives on the practice of yoga and other paradigms help to reveal the breath’s potential, ensuring that all musicians—from choral directors to solo instrumentalists—can deepen their understanding of human expression through this simple practice.
