The Music Lesson: A spiritual search for growth through music

This book by the great musician Victor L Wooten shows us through a somewhat fantastical personal story the possibilities of personal, spiritual, and musical growth. The book reminds me somewhat of the book (not the movie) What Dreams May Come in making the somewhat fantastical events seem real. In fact, I'm not sure whether Victor believes these events occurred or not. Regardless, they made a more entertaining story and a compelling way to introduce the elements of music. Even if you're not interested in the spiritual or fantastical aspects, the lessons in the elements of music make this book worth reading for any musician.
