I'm over the moon and beyond delighted to report that there is an excellent review of my book just released in the January online issue of the prestigious British magazine for string players: The Strad! 

I've known this magazine since I was a kid, so it's particularly special to be featured inside…. A bit of a dream come true! 🙂

Quotes from The Strad review of my book:

In case you're not a subscriber to the magazine, here are a few quotes that stand out, from reviewer Mathew Lee:

⭐ “Musicians in general and, to be honest, anyone involved in the performing arts, could benefit from some of the very valid strategies for overcoming the physical stresses and mental anxieties that invariably accompany a career in this difficult sector.”

⭐ “For those readers with a broader knowledge and experience of the wider variety of approaches that encompass the fields of psychological and physical enabling strategies for performing artists, the book will be good to dip into for both inspiration and refreshment.”

⭐ “The author's passion for and belief in her subject is evident throughout!”

⭐ “All strategies are backed up with examples from the author's own coaching experiences, and validated with testimonials from a number of her students.”

⭐ “In conclusion, this publication is crammed with well-thought-out and solid advice for musicians and others involved in performance arts. It's a big read, but worth exploring for the gems of insight and knowledge contained within its 312 pages.”

I am so grateful to the editors of The Strad magazine and to Matthew Lee for appreciating my work by giving it this broad exposure and support! 🙏

Plus… I just LOVE that this issue features Jacqueline Du Pré, the angelic star cellist who is mentioned briefly in my book. 🙂

Love,

Jennifer ❤️
