The Art of Performance cover

In this work the author turns his attention to the performer's role, arguing that the cult of the virtuoso has led to an overemphasis on technical display. He discusses specific ways in which performers can better serve the composer's ideas.

It comes as no surprise that this volume, though slim, is packed with a rich variety of insights ... in the burgeoning field of performance studies, it should rapidly become a standard text. * Music and Letters *
