I just wanted to thank you. I have never really understood ( or wanted to bother with) modes until today. Suddenly I get it! Your session was so clever and it was so clear that I now understand them. Wth time to digest and practice noodling etc, I will be now able to enjoy all these new sounds.

So a big thank you once again. Under your tutorship, I am really enjoying playing my harp now, and it seems to be getting easier and easier to improvise too…something I would never dreamed of doing in the past. I am sure these modes will help out too.

Love

Sue
