About the Author

Sommario/riassunto

The Performing Life: A Singer's Guide to Survival is the first-hand account of the 35-year career of singer, music professor, and recording artist Sharon Mabry, who draws on personal experience to explore how professional singers survive in the face of personal and professional pressures, exorbitant expectations, illness, and the demands of their public. She details for readers those factors that can change the course of a particular performance or an entire career.
