Benedicte Maurseth is one of his most accomplished students, an internationally known artist who has recorded for the ECM label. In a book that brings to mind such classics as \u003ci\u003eZen and the Art of Archery\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWabi Sabi\u003c\/i\u003e, the student and her master together explore the quest for excellence and originality in the heart of a living tradition. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt once mystical and practical, \u003ci\u003eTo Be Nothing\u003c\/i\u003e is a series of dialogues about music, learning, teaching, the healing power of art, and the art of life itself. With photographs evoking the rugged landscapes and people from which this music springs and the exquisite beauty of the fiddles themselves, this is a work as serene as a fjord, and as deep.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Terra Nova Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44215830872319,"sku":"9781949597059","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781949597059_s600x595.jpg?v=1782146783","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9781949597059","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
