A whole new way to play
Field Literacy
The Piano Door is an orientation to fields of tone.
12 keys.
12 sets of relationships.
An unexpected kind of clarity.
This is not about scales, songs, or theory.
It’s not about musical talent.
It’s a simple way of seeing the keyboard as repeating fields.. patterns that unlock every key.
Two shapes.
Four key types.
Immediate orientation.
Sit down and begin improvising in any key. No experience required.
Many people find this surprisingly stabilizing.
Some describe it as life changing.
But it begins simply.
If you’re curious what might move through your own hands,
or about the harmonic dimension of experience,
The door is open.
There is no rush.
5 YEARS OF LESSONS
It was basically like gifting, I don't know, five years of piano lessons to me in one lesson.
Well, here you go. Stupendous.

If something in you recognizes this, trust that.
The door will still be here tomorrow.
Enter when it feels aligned.
This new way of looking at patterns on the keyboard has caused a major brain shift for me.
I keep looking at the patterns and just can’t believe it. Makes total sense.
I was so excited and energized after our lesson last week that my mind just would not stop.
I’ve been playing around with it and listening to the sounds in a way that I never listened before, and I have a basic structure, or map, as a way to organize it.
Fascinating, just fascinating. And yet really so simple.
How did you think of this?
