Visualizing Music
What could a musical style LOOK like to a visual learner? Can visual images improve conceptual understanding of INTONATION, BALANCE, and BLEND? This text provides tools and techniques for visualizing complex musical ideas using simple shapes and illustrations and provides immediate resources to explain complex musical concepts in practical terms. Imagery is a powerful tool that transitions musicians from PREPARATION to PERFORMANCE—analytical to the artistic—seamlessly moving from notes and rhythms to shaping phrases and sensing music’s aesthetic beauty.

This is the first review I’ve ever written for a book out of the 40+ books I’ve logged on here, so I hope that alone says something. As a young band director, and as a person who hates wasting time, I truly appreciate the way this book is written. Kish gets right to the point of addressing problems and providing solutions. There’s so much detail and illustration that helps to understand the information he is giving. He also does it without cluttering the book with constant “fluffing.” If I were recommending books to new band directors, this is in the top 5.
