Qigong for musicians

From 1997 Hartmann developed the concept "Qigong for Musicians", which integrates the basic principles and exercises of Qigong into the subject areas relevant for musicians, in particular "Breath and musical design, stress management, muscular tension and playing technique" and "Prevention and compensation of physical stress caused by the Playing stance '. In addition to the practical application of this concept in his music studio, Frank Hartmann published the book "Qigong for musicians - the holistic method for relaxed and healthy music-making" in 2004.
