Welcome to
with Eugene Friesen
You’re invited
To a space for “classically trained” musicians to define and retool their artistic goals.
This is a musical community where we rediscover the joy, the passion, and the glory of the music within that has yet to be unleashed.
Where the spirit of musical performance and discovery is allowed to breathe way beyond technical proficiency...
Where notes on paper are eclipsed by the music within us that is ready to be awakened…
