462: Posture with Barry Green - a podcast by Jason Heath

from 2018-03-05T12:00

:: ::

Barry Green’s creative output is filled with surprises and unexpected new directions.  The last tie he was on the podcast, we were chatting with Barry and Jeff Bradetich about Anna’s Promise.

An article from Barry just came out in the American String Teachers Association’s journal.  Titled “Chair Factor,” this article is an examination of body energy in playing, and how posture can indicate good or bad body energy.

We dig into all sorts of fine points about this well-researched article.  Anyone who isn't an ASTA member and didn't get the article in the magazine, can send Barry a private message on Facebook or write him at Barry@innergameofmusic.com. and he will be happy to send you a copy.
