2 Cor 4:18 As we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.
Music, vibration, love, wisdom and the mythos are all part of the unseen. Join us as we elucidate on the power and magic of music.
Do not merely practice your art, but force your way into its secrets; it deserves that, for only art and science can exalt man to divinity. - Ludwig Beethoven
