"This book offers applied music instructors a practical guide for supporting their students' wellness by integrating holistic techniques into their pedagogy. The main argument in this book is that the mentorship dynamic within the applied studio situates the pedagogue in a unique position to guide and mentor their students towards a healthy and satisfying artistic life. Wellness, as a relatively new dimension within health education for musicians, can be intimidating for applied instructors. Many teachers lack the training and confidence to enter conversations in this arena. Grounded in recent research, coupled with extensive in-person interviews with students, faculty and healthcare professionals, this book demystifies the causes, challenges, and limiting factors around maintaining a healthy artistic practice, while revealing practical solutions for achieving and maintaining wellness as a performing artist. Each chapter includes a toolkit of practical exercises and activities that can be easily integrated within the applied lesson. Topics covered include injury-prevention, alignment and the breathing mechanism, mental health, contemplative practices, Laban Movement Analysis, nutrition, and sleep"--

"The Whole Musician is an ambitious and highly creative project. This practical guide bridges the gap between the theoretical and 'real' world of teaching. Susan's work allows the reader to turn everyday problems into success stories."- Michael Grinder, National Director of Education for NLPIf you are a musician reading this book, you will probably find something of yourself here. If you are an educator, a music director, a conductor, or any title that causes you to interact with musicians, either amateur or professional, you will find somebody you know in this book, maybe even yourself. Just take a moment to think back over your own years of training. As your training progressed, did you have any difficulties? Or are you the person I've been seeking who had the perfect musician's life, born with gifts in full bloom, no unseen obstacles, adored and recognized, fulfilled...?Most of us will respond to the pondering by dragging up something not so nice, or maybe even awful. It isn't because your teachers were uncaring.It is just that teachers teach what they know, and for the most part teachers teach in their own learning style. As students become performers, they practice what they know, and for the most part they practice what they learned. If that sometimes turns out to be inadequate, where do they go for help? For example, do you know how to recognize and adapt to different learning styles? What happens when your natural skill at connecting to a student is frustrated, no matter how you try? What tools do you use to enhance your student's ability to generate peak performance skills whenever they need to? What if you had a sure-fire process for helping a student/performer to relinquish a death-grip on a painful performing experience?You can find solutions and meaning in The Whole Musician

"They were all terrible sight readers in (Duke Ellington's) band. Ellington's sidemen didn't learn Ellington's music by reading it. They got it by playing every night." ~ Billy May, jazz arrangerQ: “How did you learn to play the saxophone?”Lester Young: “Just picked up the m-----f---er and started playing it!” “A lot of the boys didn't read music, but they had a good mind-- we called it a good ear. All we wanted to know was how did it sound... wasn't nothing written down.” ~ Louis ArmstrongMany of the greatest musicians of the last hundred years learned music "outside of the academy:" with little or no formal training, musicians like John Lennon, Merle Haggard, Burt Bacharach, Paul Simon, and others became greater than many musicians who took lessons their whole lives. How did these and other non-traditionally trained musicians learn music? Are there common ways that non-traditionally-trained musicians follow to become proficient as players, singers and composers in spite of their lack of formal training? And can those ways be formalized into a musical pedagogy that could, in fact, be a more effective method of mentoring musicians than the traditional “academic” approach of lessons, theory and study?In A Musical Way, Max Harrick Shenk explores the ways that we learn music in spite of formal training, reflecting on his own experiences as a listener, songwriter and musician, and drawing on the experiences of musicians who not only learned music without lessons or schooling, but often didn't even realize that they were learning. Shenk takes those experiences and proposes a "musical way" that a teacher could use to help a musically-interested student express his or her musical ideas, without getting hung up or stuck on technique, theory or an uninteresting, uninspiring repertoire. "I realized I was free to play music any way I wanted to," he writes about one of the many breakthrough moments in his own informal musical education. Fostering and encouraging that freedom in students is Shenk's "musical way."Interwoven with quotes, anecdotes and even excerpts from Shenk's own fiction, A Musical Way will help listeners, players and teachers understand the ways that we learn music, and inspire and encourage them to not only teach others, but to make music of their own.
