Finding Your Inner Musician

David Darling

Each of us is born with an innate musical ability. This workshop is an opportunity to begin or to rekindle your personal relationship with music making, no matter what instrument you play, used to play, or always wanted to play. Regardless of your age or musical background, you will be guided to a deeper, more powerful level of experience as you connect with your natural capacity for creating unique sounds and rhythms.

Through movement, chanting, and drumming, you will explore how to hear and receive musical vibration, how to claim your innate rhythms and timing, and how to improve your musical self-image. You will also unveil the musician that lives inside each of us and develop a method for approaching music on a daily basis. This is an opportunity to experience the joy of your own musical expression and invent a new attitude for thriving on your musical journey.

David Darling, cellist, composer, and educator, has been opening hearts to the mystery of sound for the past four decades. He is known for his energetic, loving, and accepting style in bringing out the musical soul in everyone. He has produced numerous recordings as well as eight solo albums, and has more than three dozen collaborative efforts with such diverse artists as Paul Winter and Jan Garbarek.
