An audition can be the most frightening - and most important -- ten minutes in a young artist's career. Now comes Don Greene, a remarkable teacher who has worked with Metropolitan Opera musicians, singers from around the country, and athletes including Greg Louganis -- all of whom know what it means to perform under extreme stress. Audition Success presents a groundbreaking method that has already made Greene one of the country's leading audition trainers. Combining specially designed self-tests and real-life examples from the careers of two performers, Audition Success will help performers understand what prevents them from nailing an audition and give them the tools to reach their goals. Audition Success helps dispel the myth that you perform best by being completely relaxed. On the contrary, some anxiety isn't going to hurt, as long as you can make it work for you. Don Greene's techniques teach you how to monitor and control fear, and put your nervous energy to work. The beginning performer will find here the tools to prepare for the audition circuit, and the experienced performer will appreciate techniques that can turn good auditions into great ones.Greene, Don is the author of 'Audition Success An Olympic Sports Psychologist Teaches Performing Artists How to Win' with ISBN 9780878301218 and ISBN 0878301216.
