FELT UNDERSTOOD -
Online courses
Is music theory like learning Chinese or maths for you? Is it all too much for you? Do you think that it (music theory) is only accessible to the so-called "gifted"? Or is it all too theoretical for you?
​
The fault doesn't have to lie with you! In my experience, music theory tends to be taught in the same way as teaching someone to cook strictly according to a recipe, but forbidding them to taste and savour. All music theory is an attempt to describe the collective feeling of the musical forces, which means that the feeling was already there before the theory, including in you. We can bring this buried feeling to light together and explore the various aspects of music theory in a felt/perceived way. We start with the very rudimentary forces and look at how they developed through classical music to jazz, pop and blues.
The final course, "Unexpectedly Musical", looks at all the inhibiting and blocking forces that prevent you from making music, freed from fear, I will show you techniques to overcome old outdated beliefs (such as "I'm just not musical enough").

Intuitive Play -
Konitz/Tristano Course
When I met Lee Konitz in 2004, he showed me a completely new way of improvising, as I see it in retrospect, truly intuitive
improvising.
Instead of using patterns and structures to navigate through chord progressions and scales, Lee referred to the melody and taught me to associate new melodies with the melody and lyrics of the standard, taking my musicianship to a new level. If you are interested in getting more in touch with your musical intuition I cordially invite you to this workshop.
