Music as language not performance

When we fully internalise the elements of musical language, we can experience music not as something performed that happens outside us, but as a profound message or communication that emanates from – or touches – our innermost being. This way, music can be a source of life force.

Tone and Groove provides a route for accessing this deep understanding of music, unlocking its extraordinary power to help you make sense of life, to generate transformation and inner growth. Using the voice, clapping or simple percussion and even the magical design of the piano keyboard, you will practise playfully to acquire a crystal clear understanding of the fractalesque formation of music, how it unfolds to create meaningful shapes and patterns of relationships.

A special kind training in using or creating music for meditation

Starting very simple, developing your skills and awareness to wahtever level you choose, you will learn how tonality and rhythm function, using elements of musical language in a childlike state of wonder, purely for the expression and understanding of your inner feelings, without ego. All this is possible using simple practices without needing to study conventional music theory. The cognitive effort involved with theoretical study is unnecessary as we all possess an intuitive connection to the principles and elements that Tone and Groove helps us explore consciously.

Extraordinary benefits

We can do this wonderful practice alone for personal growth or in groups as a way to create powerful bonds. Perhaps by sharing it with our children, we can give them extraordinary advantages musically and in countless other ways.

The life force, or deep inner feeling, that music expresses, is experienced in the body and soul rather than the mind. Tone and Groove, enables you to use music as a direct connection to life force. Music can access the deep feeling consciousness within the body’s system of chakras – centres of specific energy located in the body – in a practical, common-sense way. Music can then become the perfect channel for transcending ego to access an ecstatic source of boundless bliss.
