Are you a former music-maker who yearns to return to music, but
aren't sure where to begin? You're not alone. Many adults who used
to play an instrument haven't touched it in years because either
they can't find the time to practice, are afraid their skills are
too rusty, or are unsure of what kind of group they could join.
Others are afraid to sing in front of an audience, no matter how
small, because they received negative feedback from childhood
instructors. Performing, practicing, and composing music may seem
like unattainable goals with insurmountable obstacles for busy
adults with non-musical careers. Making Time for Making Music can
help adults find ways to make music part of their lives. The first
book of its kind, it is filled with real-life success stories from
more than 350 adults who manage to fit music-making into their
jam-packed schedules. They polished rusty skills, found musical
groups to join, and are having a great time. Their testimonies
prove that you are never too old to learn to make music, and that
there are numerous musical paths to explore. Featuring advice from
dozens of music educators, health care professionals, and music
researchers who point out that making music can even be good for
your health, this book offers inspiration and tried-and-true
strategies for anyone who wishes to return to music-making or begin
as an adult.
