Finding Clarity in Ear Training - Break Through the Fog

Описание: 👉 Free Course: https://www.uremusic.com/audiation-in...

Most musicians live in a fantasy—chasing shortcuts, avoiding the grind, mistaking comfort for mastery.

This talk destroys the myth.

In this raw, research-backed session, I reveal the truth about “busy work” in music:

— Why drills matter.
— Why real growth happens at the edge of your comfort zone.
— Why every shortcut is a chain—and every repetition is a weapon for your freedom.

You’ll hear the stories behind the struggle.

You’ll get the science that proves why the work works.

And you’ll see how honest, conscious practice can transform not just your playing, but your life.

This isn’t about empty motivation or exploitation.

It’s an honest contract: my expertise for your transformation.

If you’re tired of being manipulated by false promises and ready to do the real work—this is for you.
