Hal Leonard Twelve-Key Practice: The Path to Mastery and Individuality by Julie Lyonn Lieberman

Imagine if you could HEAR a musical phrase, VISUALIZE its layout on your instrument by “seeing” and “feeling” the fingerings and/or embouchure in your mind's eye, KNOW the names of the notes as well as the degrees of the key and FEEL the dynamics you want to include. All simultaneously, in a millisecond, and without moving a muscle ... and in any key! Welcome to the twelve-key approach for all instruments and levels. Twelve-key practice applies the latest breakthroughs in brain biomechanics to facilitate technical mastery. Practicing in all twelve keys has never been sequenced or taught through the lens offered within these pages. The exercises in this book span a number of styles, brain skills and practice technique – all presented using a kaleidoscopic learning style.

Julie Lyonn Lieberman's previous eight books and six DVDs have garnered rave reviews from a wide array of music magazines as well as renowned musicians from aroudn the world.
