FOUNDATION OF MUSIC AS AN ART, TECHNIQUE & PRACTICE

Have you ever wondered what turns a random set of notes into music? Well, it could be a problem of aesthetics but there is underlying science that makes some notes sound sweet and nostalgic, while others make us want to rip our heart out and cry.

If science and logic are involved, then like any other skill, learning to understand, perform and more importantly feel the music must be an innate thing, imbibed in our DNA.

I believe that regardless of where you come from or who you are, anyone can be a musician, or an artist. With my sixth year of coaching and mentoring, I have never seen anyone who, with the right training and guidance, could not become an artist.

If music moves you, and want to give it a serious shot, let me assist you in your journey. There is no way in existence that you can’t be a musician!

In fact, I guarantee a 100% money back, in case you felt otherwise.
