The young musician's survival guide

Offers advice on the challenges involved in learning to play a musical instrument, including tips from teenage musicians and professional musicians about practicing, performing, and buying equipment. 150 teens from renowned musical programs, such as the Juilliard School's Pre-College Program and the Tanglewood Institute, offer tips on coping with common problems they encountered at an earlier age. In addition, nineteen professional musicians, including Wynton Marsalis, Andre Watts, and Evelyn Glennie, offer practical advice on how they tamed performance jitters, handled pesky peers, mastered difficult pieces, and tackled dozens of other problems. An extensive resource guide lists sources of additional help.
