The long-awaited translation of Inger Murray’s book that will be invaluable for musicians and other people in the performing arts as well as those who suffer from nervousness and other exposed situations. Psychologist Inger Murray has worked with many professional musicians with her Mental Training for Musician workshops. She regularly holds them at the Royal Academy of Music in London as well as the Royal Danish Conservatoire in her native Denmark.
Many performers find they can play perfectly well when they practise but then in performance they lose focus, or show outward signs of nervousness which prevent them from giving a performance they are worthy of. This book will help conquer this all to common problem with professionals, students and amateurs alike. It will help one to understand why it happens and how to counteract it. It is the next best thing to having a one to one or group session with this great lady herself.
This translation is by her husband, Owen Murray who is the classical accordion professor at the Royal Academy of Music. His students are notoriously strong in performance thanks to his inclusion of his wife’s experience and workshops as part of his teaching.
