"When you create music, whether you are practicing at home, playing for a friend, or for a crowded stadium, you are tapping into the universe's first moment when the Big Bang happened and by making music, we get to remember this feeling and connect with others in an experience that is unique to being human."

Michael has adapted our lessons because my right hand is broken. I'm learning a lot about chords and exercises I can do with my left hand and exploring the chords as foundations of different kinds of music. It's fascinating.
