Julie’s NEW (and 9th) BOOK!!
This summer and early fall, I will be finishing my newest book: Twelve Key Practice The Path to Mastery and Individuality I am quite proud of the original content in this book, including my signature approach to applying the whole musical brain to practice and performance. The book will be notated for all instruments. Distributed worldwide by Hal Leonard.
I will be introducing contemporary techniques and creativity to string students at New York University. Looking forward to returning to my stomping grounds. I was an adviser to NYU's Gallatin Division for 10 years before I moved out of NYC. It will be interesting to see the area again after a long break.
I am presently converting my new book, Twelve-Key Practice, into an eBook. The 144-page paperback is available via all outlets (amazon, bookstores, music stores, etc.).
