While there is a large body of empirical research regarding music, most musicians lack the scientific training to interpret these studies. This text bridges this gap by relating these skills to the musician's experiences, addressing their needs directly with non-technical language and practical application. The book includes multiple illustrations, brief music examples, cases, questions, and suggestions for further reading.
This book provides a concise, accessible, and up-to-date introduction to psychological research for musicians. It reviews relevant psychological research findings in relation to situations and issues faced by musicians, and draws out practical implications for teaching and performance. Rather than a list of 'Dos and Don'ts', this books equips musicians with an understanding of the basic psychological principles that underlie music performance, enabling each reader to apply the content flexibly to the task at hand.
