Ausgehend von der Erfahrung, dass ganzheitliches Lernen in den Sportarten Skifahren, Tennis und Golf zu schnelleren und besseren Leistungen führt als herkömmlicher Unterricht, greift der Orchesterkontrabassist und Musikhochschullehrer Barry Green die Unterrichtsmethode von Timothy Gallwey für die o.g. Sportarten auf, um sie für Musizierende nutzbar zu machen. Ausgehend von der zunächst einigermaßen schockierenden Nachricht, daß in jedem von uns "ein Mozart" stecke, beschäftigt sich Green mit den folgenden Themen: die Kraft der Aufmerksamkeit, die Kraft des Willens, die Kraft des Vertrauens, das Loslassen, Umgang mit Schwierigkeiten, Lehren und Lernen, Zuhören, Eltern und Lehrer, Integration und Balance, Ensemblespiel, Improvisation, Komposition und Kreativität. Dieses Buch ist unbedingt zu empfehlen für alle, die lehrend oder lernend mit Musik zu tun haben
