Have you ever wanted to pick up a musical instrument and just play? Maybe it seems too late in life and, without formal education, just a hopeless dream. Maybe you already have musical ability but don’t know how to take it to the next level.

The great news is that there is a powerful way to learn and develop real music-making skills without countless hours of traditional education. Both beginners and highly skilled musicians can reap the benefits.

Become a real musician if you never were, then go beyond as far as you desire. Perform and sound great for others or just for your own satisfaction.

Be highly effective in creative musical artistry, musical arranging, and composing. Music is something most of us love. Often, it has deep meaning and impact, whether in people’s lives throughout the world or just on a personal level. Would it be life-enriching to learn real musical skills? Would music add a whole new part or dimension to your life? I’ll teach you that it easily can, but how?

From what we traditionally know, learning to play a musical instrument, including singing, takes some discipline. It takes hours of dedicated, daily practice you don’t want to put in.

Perhaps you’ve tried to take piano, guitar, singing, or other lessons, but it just didn’t work out or wasn’t worth the needed time and effort. You feel you don’t have any natural musical talent, and you can’t read a single note.

Well, did you know many famous musicians can’t either? If only you knew a simpler, less formal way of learning and playing music.

Yes, there is an approach to having you play great music in a fraction of the usual learning curve. It doesn’t require you to be greatly gifted or highly knowledgeable of all the music theories and principles traditionally taught.

A very basic and minimal amount of musical knowledge is plenty for you or anyone to make an enormous leap into the world of music-making.

The ways of teaching music are often technical, complex and tedious. They lose their charm, and do not make use of our more natural, creative, artistic powers. The ideas in this book focus more on these skills and abilities. As a result they are more enjoyable, satisfying, and empowering.

Without expensive and extensive training, and whether a beginner or highly skilled musician, you can learn to reach a higher level with your music.

In this book, you will discover the keys in relation to:

• Playing the music you love, but only dreamt of making yourself
• Rising above traditional, complex, and technical lessons
• Honing creative, musical skills without countless time spent
• Seeing the big picture of music and how it really works
• Finding your unique style and taking it to the next level
• Performing and enjoying music beyond what you ever thought possible
