Years ago I read the original book: "The Inner Game of Tennis" by Timothy Galway, at the recommendation of John Swallow.

It is an incredible book!!! For my money, "The Inner Game of Music" pales by comparison to the orginal. The basic ideas put forth are Zen-like, based on simplicity.....the music version is a tome that is about 4 times as long, and is over complicated, and VERY verbose! (to my way of thinking, the complete antithesis of the spirit of the original!)

Do yourself a favor, get the tennis version...the concepts translate easily to any performance situation!

GOOD LUCK!
