Don Greene has worked with Greg Louganis and the Olympic Diving Team, members of the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, conductor Michael Tilson Thomas, and countless Julliard students.
"Musicians face an intensely competitive orchestral job market and
the reality that a three-minute audition can determine a life-long
career. Don Greene's AuditionSuccess gives young musicians a
concrete set of skills to achieve the concentrated focus needed in
these critical moments." -- Michael Tilson Thomas, Music Director
of the San Francisco Symphony and Artistic Director of the New
World Symphony
"Audition Success is a must read for all musicians seeking
professional careers." -- Julie Landsman, Principal Horn,
Metropolitan Opera Orchestra, Faculty, The Julliard School.
"Dr. Greene is a wonderful teacher. His words of wisdom are always
insightful and illuminating. Audition Success really opened my eyes
to a new way of auditioning and music making. It's an indispensable
tool for any musician." -- Tom Sherwood, Principal Percussionist,
Atlanta Symphony Orchestra
"Before working with Dr. Greene, I was too often preoccupied with
the "what-if's" while I was playing. However, through his methods
of centering and visualization, among others, my concentration and
sense of focus has since drastically improved my performance on
many levels. This book is a "must-have" for anyone who wants to
beat their own mind-games!" -- Julia Pilant, Principal Horn,
Syracuse Symphony, Musician of the Year
"Don Greene taught me and can teach you how to audition at a far
superior level to get the job. When you are ready and willing to
really improve your audition strategy, READ THIS BOOK!!!!" --
Michelle Wrighte, Opera Singer, Met Regional Competition Winner,
Chicago Lyric Opera
"The key, I discovered, is not getting rid of the things that
happen in stressful situations, because that's unrealistic, but
instead learning how to work with them positively. This man really
is incredible. His teaching... has really helped me pull everything
into my own sphere of control. Working with him has been one of the
most productive experiences of my life." -- Pat Gonsalves, trumpet,
Oberlin student
