Praise for PracticeMind

"PracticeMind is a staggering achievement, one of the most well thought-out and comprehensive books on music pedagogy I have ever seen. Though specific to string music instruction, the practical and philosophical lessons in this book read like a blueprint for success in virtually any field. Highly recommended!"

"CelloMind! It is beautifully written, impeccable explained with details, and so well organized! It is a truly great work and will be really helpful to every person who wants to play the cello. And I am convinced that it will be one of 'The Real Musts' for anyone learning or teaching this wonderful instrument!"
