Welcome
Welcome everyone!
Thank you so much for joining in to review and celebrate this 12th anniversary of Dragonfly music video and song launched on youtube April 22nd 2012.
May you enjoy the stories behind the song, composition and video.
This recorded workshop is a little taste of the 9 weeks it took to learn the whole song
which felt like a crash course just barely teaching every page. It required weekly hours
of practice to keep up.
You will have 21 days to learn part 1 and part 2 of the Introductory patterns.
It will go very quickly. Please plan wisely to practice and review each week.
There are unique stroke techniques not commonly taught so you want
to give as much time, in compacted time for new body and brain memory and wiring.
The time signature are also not commonly used though very easy to follow.
The insect Dragonfly symbolizes transformation, change, rebirth, adoptability and living
in the present moment.
The song too represents the same. It also honors the symbol of the frame drum, it's rich history centered around a Mother Goddess and her priestess. It represents a reclaiming of this instrument as a sacred tool of remembrance and transformation.
The composition calls to adapt to change to different time signatures and sing the inspired language that was originally created in the present moment.
Enjoy this little journey.
Warmest
Miranda
