About the Book

First, I would like to thank everyone who has purchased and read Mental Strategies to Improve Sight-Reading, Memorization, and Performance. I have retired this booklet because most of the material has been included in a new book of mine, Practicing Music by Design: Historic Virtuosi on Peak Performance, which is to be published by Routledge in July 2019.
