Music Pursuing The Horizon is literally a handbook of survival for musicians. The book deals with subjects which cause problems for anyone pursuing music as a career or as an avocation. The material is geared not at instruction but rather at problem solving. With this problem solving approach, musical myths are explored and exploded.
Deep and highly personal problems often prevent players from achieving their potential. How to cope with attitudes toward yourself, music and a acreer is a critically important factor in succeding in music on any level.
Within the subjects discussed, there is common sense advice and solutions for many pressing problems that plague musicians on a day to day basis.
This book is recommended by the Liverpool Institute for the Performing Arts and by The Eastman School of Music.
“In his book, Music Pursuing the Horizon, Chuck Anderson gives valuable advice on a wide variety of music related topics such as Talent, Setting Goals and Progress to name a few. Though these topics are not typically studied in most music curriculum, they should be and they are done so effectively in Chuck’s book. I highly recommend “Music Pursuing the Horizon” to music students everywhere.”
