This engaging lecture will cover the building blocks of chords, musical scales, and modes, highlighting how these patterns contribute to key signatures across various genres.

Whether you're an instrumentalist, performer, singer/songwriter, or simply a music enthusiast, this session is designed for those at the basic to intermediate level. With his holistic approach to music, Daniel will discuss how the range of vibration influences our state of mind and the human form, enriching your musical experience.
