"In the ever-increasing literature on Mahler, there remains a need for analysis and interpretation that is useful to both the listener and performer. Julian Johnson's Mahler's Voices fills that gap: it is provocative, engaging, and, particularly for the performer, valuable."--Leon Botstein, President, Bard College
"Unprecedented in breadth, Mahler's Voices captures the genius and craft of the composer's output in an absorbing narrative. Johnson deftly applies the concept of "voice" to Mahler's entire output as well as the potent cultural and political milieu in which he worked. The result is the most original and compelling single volume on the composer's music available in the English language."--Karen Painter, University of Minnesota, editor of Mahler and His World
"This is an intriguing, kaleidoscopic study of Mahler's entire oeuvre conducted almost entirely through the conceptual lens of 'musical voice.' Johnson continually reframes and refocuses many issues raised elsewhere in the vast Mahler literature, which he knows quite well. One is tempted to say: The new Adorno (but beautifully written)! Essential reading for anyone deeply committed to Mahler's music."--Stephen E. Hefling, Professor of Music, Case Western Reserve University; Editorial Board, Gustav Mahler: Neue Kritische Gesamtausgabe
"As ever, Eric combines his unique insights into the arts and education, his profound commitment to improving the teaching of the arts in this country, his intellect, his humor-and, in this case, his wonderful writing-to produce a book that stands a very good chance of, yes, becoming a bible for many in music education."- Steven Seidel, Director of Harvard Project Zero, Director of Arts Education Program at Harvard Graduate School of Education
"The surge of interest in teaching artistry, along with the realization of its urgent need, has affected many of us deeply, and certainly myself as a performing and composing musician.

Like a bible, it is a compilation of helpful hints to be carried around with one as one goes through the important work of one's life." - Jon Deak, Composer, Associate Principal Bass, New York Philharmonic
"The Music Teaching Artist's Bible fills a gap in the arts learning field, providing the first foundation book for the burgeoning field of teaching artists.

It belongs in every musician's, every conservatory's, every teaching artist's library."- Barbara Shepherd, Director of National Partnerships, The Kennedy Center, Education Department
