Love this 30-day trial .

I have played music for over 30 years and the learning continues to challenge and fascinate me.

Some random thoughts:

Explore what aspect of music most interests/excites you (melody, lyrics, rhythm, composition)

Explore different music styles and forms - especially those you don't particularly like

Explore the mathematics of music you like.

Make music using objects around the house.

Listen for rhythmic patterns around you.

Biographies of musicians can be interesting and inspirational.

Music can be approached in the same way you would learn a language or a sport.

I am looking forward to hearing about your 30-day trial - enjoy

Neil

A fantastic book for ideas is The Listening Book (discovering your own music)by W A Mathieu Chapter titles include -Singng with Machines, Gibberish and 20 Sounds to Get Lost In
