THE MUSIC LESSON:
A spiritual search for growth through Music
For years, Victor Wooten has inspired millions through his music and music camps. Now, Victor will inspire millions more with his new book,
THE MUSIC LESSON (Berkley Trade Paperback Original; April 1, 2008; $15), the story of a struggling young musician who is unexpectedly visited by a mysterious, seemingly mystic music teacher. This teacher, and others who the musician encounters, guide him through a spiritual journey of higher education in both music and life.
In this parable, life lessons are broken down into ten major elements of music: Notes, Articulation, Technique, Emotion, Dynamics, Rhythm, Tone, Phrasing, Space (rests), and Listening. Each element gets its own chapter and becomes a piece of the “big picture” of life. Written with insight and humor, THE MUSIC LESSON demonstrates an appealing, Zen-like approach to making music – and changing lives.
