Detailed Information The Balkan region is known for its rich and diverse musical heritage, which has been influenced by various cultures and traditions over the centuries. I am launching this new course to share the finer things about Balkan music. The correct notes can be played by any musician, but how often do I find myself in tears when listening to a great musician who gets it so wrong, simply because they did not have the opportunity to travel, listen, and learn from native masters? Instead, they might have learned it third-hand or from a piece of sheet music. Western classical music notation cannot fully capture the essence of other types of music, and a metronome can stifle the authentic phrasing of asymmetric Balkan rhythms. I am not a native Balkan music master either, but I feel very privileged that I had the opportunity to learn from several of them, and engage in endless, wild jam sessions. In this course, I aim to convey not only the right musical feel but also the fervour and passion for this music. The weekly course primarily targets melodic instruments. Tunes will be taught by ear, initially using the voice (sheet music will be sent out beforehand), and then practiced on the instrument. Special attention will be devoted to phrasing, articulation, and, of course, the typical charisma of Balkan music to give it that truly magical sound. Whilst I am a violinist and will demonstrate and lead with the violin and voice, the course is suitable for any melodic instrument. The level is aimed at intermediate to advanced players, although ambitious and diligent lower-intermediate players will also do well. We will briefly cover accompaniment aspects, including chord progressions, rhythm patterns, and techniques. Dedicated workshops for chordal instruments and percussion will be offered as we progress. The course will run weekly and continuously, with no regular sessions during usual UK school holidays. Booking will be in advance in 5-session units. Each unit can be booked individually, or you can sign up for an annual booking and pay in 6 instalments distributed over the whole year, receiving a 20% discount on the total course fee.

If you could Really change the course of your Life would you want to know? What if to change that direction meant having to unravel everything, we Thought we knew about the Mind, and thus fragmenting our Identity? Would we want to hold on to the comforts of what we Think we are, or would we be brave enough to take a leap of faith into the possibilities of the unknown? This will be difficult to believe, but we are NOT our Minds, which themselves are Meta Bio Technological Frameworks which control Imagination through wormholes in the 4th Dimension. We are TIME, but not time as we believe it to be, and all of us have been, and still are sitting within the most complex and sophisticated simulators that can create any reality within 3-Dimensional space. If you require a simple example of this, follow the link to the “Expectations of THINKING” We have temporarily lost the manual to the instrumentation of our Minds, and these are instructions to its functionalities that we won’t find externally. It is an unspoken language of knowledge, and it is compressed within the Framework of our bodies, and the most effective means to access these archives of data is by expanding the eloquence and elegance of Emotional expression. Our bodies are archives of knowledge, but we must learn how to extract the layers of Consciousness that as Time, precede us going as far back an existence before Humanity. Our Minds need these blueprints of data before they can start ReMapping our future, but our Beliefs are transparent shackles that ground the Mind, preventing the natural elevation of Time to higher states where we would see all at once, the culmination of our Lives as a play of colours, scattered across Consciousness, as a Past, a Present, and possible Futures. Our Operating Frequencies are so low that we barely Think above 2 Dimensions, using whatever Limiting Beliefs to create conclusions to 3 Dimensional realities that are not there, which Imagination convincingly simulates as illusions. Did you see the colourful Cubes? If your answer was yes, then you have just proven that your Imagination indeed, creates realities that are not there, which in this instance, demonstrates that most of our Thoughts are 2 DIMENSIONAL. We are all 4th Dimensional beings, but the expectation of how we Think, if at all, are illusions that lessen our opportunities for change, all Thoughts of which are beliefs that weigh down the Mind to representations of a Subconscious. The Subconscious can be anything where we give over our rights to something that controls our fate because they obscure our Minds, but these obscurities are actually Time as repetitions of Thought, instead of that Time being used toward Creative Thinking, and not what Imagination illustrates as these influential objects. How many examples like this, can we Think of where we consciously give away our Minds, where indeed these external factors that up until this time, have been mapping us to fulfil their own directives? Regards. Mind ReMapping
