The Musician's Spirit: Connecting to Others Through Story

A worthy companion to The Musicians Soul, The Musicians Spirit focuses not on the self, but on others and the stories each artist is able to share through his or her work. Using thought-provoking quotations, real-life stories, and visual art, Jordan challenges all artists to share themselves with their audience and fellow artists, thereby creating a more personal and beautiful body of work.

This visually stunning book offers practical and inspirational words on courage and vision, the art of listening, trust, conquering the fear of looking foolish, and the importance of story in teaching. Jordan also includes a Storying Guide to help the reader bring out his or her own story as well as space for personal notes, stories, and reflections.

Though written with musicians in mind, this book offers tremendous insight for any artist wanting to share his or her vision and story with the world.
