The young John Zaradin felt driven to make his life in music against all 'sensible' career advice offered by his peers and parents. An interest in philosophy led him to a circle of creative people dedicated to self-development. They demonstrated to him that a life in the arts was indeed possible, if he worked with some tried and tested guidelines. These included - in addition to all aspects of music, its performance and the business of survival - a rigorous self-examination and a continual re-focusing on his stated aim. His choice to both listen and act on what he was absorbing helped him to make his first steps on the way to living and shaping his life as a musician. Many years later, a conversation with a friend resulted in the writing of his Personal Journey, in which he reveals the story of how he transformed his own life and developed his career as musician, guitarist and composer.

(Music Sales America). A series of three volumes containing the very best of Spanish guitar music. Over 50 traditional pieces by Bartolome Calatayud, graded from simple to advanced throughout the book.

This valuable study guide is a comprehensive index to the fifteen books comprising The Collected Works of Eugene Halliday. Born in 1911, he was an artist, writer and psychotherapist who drew on many traditions of human knowledge and experience: the texts of world religions; mystical schools such as Qabalah; poetry, philosophy and theology (Blake, Milton, Nietzsche, Boehme); psychology (Jung) and modern science (Einstein). He formulated a psychotherapeutic method from which many were to benefit in the years following the second world war, and which is still of relevance and benefit to us today. His books form a comprehensive guide to self-development, both psychological and spiritual; and an interpretation of the wisdom tradition, East and West, for modern students of consciousness studies, philosophy, psychology, science, religion and hermeneutics.
