Publisher Description Everyone, according to W.A. Mathieu, is musical by nature—it goes right along with being human. And if you don't believe it, this book will convince you. In a series of interrelated short essays, Mathieu takes the reader on a journey through ordinary experiences to open our ears to the rich variety of music that surrounds us but that we are trained to ignore; such as the variety of pitches produced by different objects, like glassware, furniture, drums—anything you can tap; or sounds that hover on the border of music, like laughter, the clinking of glasses in a toast, or the unintentional falsetto produced by yawning. Along the way the author teaches aspects of music theory that nonmusicians might ordinarily shy away from. He reveals the way of music to be a profoundly spiritual path—one that is everyone's birthright. Author Biography W. A. Mathieu is the author of The Listening Book, Harmonic Experience and The Musical Life. He has recorded solo piano music for Windham Hill and other labels. He lives in Sebastopol, California, where he writes and teaches. Details ISBN 0877736707 ISBN-13 9780877736707 Title The Musical Life: Reflections on What It Is and How to Live It Author W.A.
