Zusammenfassung:"Psychology for Musicians examines the processes that underlie the acquisition of musical skills, Lehmann, Sloboda, and Woody provide a concise, accessible, and up-to-date introduction to psychological research for musicians. The authors explore common traits between skilled activities in nonmusical domains and particular musical behaviors such as sight-reading, improvisation, performing from memory, and composing. With these comparisons in mind, they examine how the skills needed to teach, perform, and even listen to music are acquired and honed over time. Importantly, they take a cross-cultural perspective, considering the "conservatory culture" of formally trained musicians alongside non-Western societies, past periods of history, and contemporary vernacular music cultures."--BOOK JACKET.
