One Song: The Nightingale
Blueprints for Creativity
These two classes couldn’t be more different from one another!
“ONE SONG: THE NIGHTINGALE” focuses on a single song, my most popular piece, “The Nightingale” – in a series of bite-size sessions you learn to break the tune down, to learn how it ‘works’ and to build up a version of it specifically for your technical level – as an instrumental tune, or to sing and play. “BLUEPRINTS for CREATIVITY” teaches you SIX powerful improv forms — all the basic improv structures that we use throughout the year in Hip Harp Academy. Each one is a blueprint for infinite creative expression, as you can apply it to any simple tune to create new music over and over.
One Song: The Nightingale
“One Song” is a new way of learning music: to deconstruct it, simplify, master and expand – so you can liberate yourself from the notes on the page and play it masterfully at your level of technical ability – whether you’re a fledgeling player or an advanced professional.
With “One Song: The Nightingale” you’ll learn to play this song as if it were the song of your own heart. When you learn to do that with One Song – you’ll know how to do it with any song.
