Practicing: A Musician's Return to Music

I hoped this book would be more than it turned out to be. Kurtz was a child guitar prodigy. He went on to study music at a renowned conservatory, but he abandoned the guitar and music not long after he graduated. He returned to the guitar a few years ago and uses the format of this book to discuss the pleasures of his return. I wished he had been more open about the whys and hows of his departure and his subsequent return to music.
