How does “The Magic of Grouned Expansion” Work?
Every great relationship includes both safety and an invitation to adventure. Now you can have that relationship with your harp — through improvisation.
Most musicians think they have to choose between staying “correct” and structured OR being free and improvisational.
But what if the magic happens when you combine both?
Inside this webinar, I will introduce the powerful concept of Grounded Expansion: The ability to stay rooted in what you already know while expanding into improvisation, creativity, and personal expression.
This Method Works For You If…
- You feel stuck playing pieces the same way over and over
- You want to improvise, but don’t know where to start
- You crave more freedom, expression, and flow in your playing
- You’re tired of perfectionism holding back your creativity
- You want your music to feel more like you
Growth comes from grounding…
and allowing expansion to happen.
Meet your creative coach Deborah Henson-Conant
I’m Deborah Henson-Conant, and I’ve been composing, arranging and creating shows since I was a kid. I now play shows with symphonies and on solo stages with the electric harp that was created for me by CAMAC Harps, the “DHC” Harp.
But I started on the ukulele, playing and singing my own little-kid arrangements, telling stories, improvising and playing and singing with other people. And guess what? I use many of the same skills and principles to arrange the music I record and perform today – including the Grammy-Nominated album “Invention & Alchemy” and the song that won first prize in the International Songwriting Competiton (ISC).
