Introduction by Robert Van Sice

"So many of the truths in music making are found behind the notes. As a performer Bart Quartier understands that and in this wonderful book he helps marimba players of all ages in their musical quest."

Robert Van Sice[1]


Purpose

The purpose behind ' Imagine ' is to expose a mental approach to marimba playing. To me, my goal as a teacher is achieved at the moment when my student has become master of himself. To say it with Gordon Stout's words: " A good teacher has only to teach you how to teach yourself ". I do strongly believe that - provided that the student is conducted and sup-ported in a good way - the process of self-teaching can be started from the beginning. [2]
