Publisher's Synopsis

Talent CAN Be Taught is the definitive handbook on creating music ability. It begins by explaining the connection between talent and skills, and provides six key strategies (referred to as the Powerful PRAISE Techniques) that are essential for the development of music talent. TCBT also presents 15 main reasons (which the author refers to as failing traditions) for the typically very low success rate of private music lessons everywhere for many decades - including a widely used technique that the author describes as the #1 worst-ever teaching strategy. This unique (TCBT) system of education also contains tips for accelerating student progress without creating gaps in learning - something attempted by many students with disastrous results. In addition, a philosophy of education is shared that includes proven methods for the successful development of music skills. The keys to learning to play by ear and learning to read music quickly and easily are also included, and there is an insightful survey for the reader to assess their own personal experiences with music education. Also highlighted are details of TCBT's unique Achievers programs as well as the reasons for this system's extraordinary success, as students using the system continue to achieve an 87% average on independently operated Royal Conservatory of Music exams. The book is a must read for parents and teachers of music students.
