Drawing from their own experiences as conductors, composers, producers, and teachers, musical collaborators James Jordan and James Whitbourn bring the importance of trust to the forefront in this exploration, examining the many facets of this often mysterious quality within an individual and an ensemble context both. Among the topics the authors discuss are the building of trust among musicians; whether trust has a sound in individuals and ensembles; the gestures of a conductor that can inadvertently breed mistrust; trusting in one’s own musical judgments; and trust within an ensemble. This insightful book clarifies and celebrates the central role trust plays in musicianship and closes with a probing essay on the nature of stillness by Donald Sheehan.
