    TONALRefraction depicts fundamental aspects of musical experience which are often neglected, sometimes even undermined in traditional music training.
INTRODUCING TONALRefraction
      THREE PRIVATE SESSIONS
      Build awareness of the many ways you respond to tone
      Enable the ear-imagination to work free of the constraints
          of conventional notation or of instrumental technique
      Empower the adult musical self to listen more fully and
          to play with greater ease, conviction and satisfaction

      WORKSHOPS
      Make musical genres vivid for listeners and for players
      Build awareness of how one's own history as a listener
          adds to fully mature listening

      GROUP SESSIONS
      Introduce the technique
      Reactivate TONALRefraction for those already familiar with it

      TRAINING SEMINARS
      Use TONALRefraction to demonstrate to professionals how to
          improve their listening skills, to enable them to listen more
          sympathetically to the playing of others
