"Contains guidance for preparation for performance, including programming, advertising, performance check list, and clinic, etc. It is like a manual for performers. Recommended for those of you who have chances to perform." -Gendai Guitar Magazine

"Although the scope of this topic may appear unwieldy, his approach is comprehensive yet reader friendly. Provost covers a vast landscape, ranging from pre-concert preparation to performance. En route, the four P s are discussed; these include the practical, physical, psychological, and pedagogical aspects of performing. The Art & Technique of Performance may be considered a how-to manual and helpful to many teachers and performers. It is to Provosts credit that his long career as a teacher has also included concern for the performers total preparation." -Julie Jaffee Nagel, American Music Teacher

Many learn how to play but few really learn how to perform. I applaid Richard Provost for his work in this area. D.B., American String Teacher Magazine
