How Can We Keep From Singing Music and the Passionate Life Hardcover - 2001

by Joan Oliver Goldsmith


From the publisher

Over Twenty Million Americans sing publicly in a choir, chorus, or other ensemble. In an irresistible writing voice, Joan Oliver Goldsmith celebrates this amateur world of song -- and revives the original meaning of the word "amateur" as lover. She brings the reader not only behind the scenes but inside the music itself. Above all, Goldsmith teaches us to listen to ourselves and not to hold back in playing the "invisible instrument" of the creative spirit -- whether in writing poetry, restoring old cars, planting a garden, or singing a good old song.

First line

When I make music, adventures happen.
