Praise for PracticeMind

"In “PracticeMind”, Hans Jørgen Jensen and Oleksander Mycyk have made a huge contribution to the art of stringed instrument playing.   What makes this so innovative and powerful is their in-depth holistic approach.  By combining the physical, psychological, and emotional in the study of a stringed instrument, they have addressed the full human being.  This holistic approach is crucial for success as an instrumentalist as well as for anything else one wants to accomplish in life.  I wholeheartedly endorse “PracticeMind” and congratulate Jensen and Mycyk on their artistic and educational vision!"

"Hans Jørgen Jensen and Oleksander Mycyk have successfully undertaken an incredible challenge, for both authors and readers— that of managing our “Practice Mind”. For musicians, self-management of this critical element remains highly valuable throughout their student and professional lives. This volume lays out a definite path, breaking down the multi-faceted task of efficient and productive practice. PracticeMind guides us step-by-step to a functional and successful “Practice Mind"."
