Finding Light in the Tension

This focused lesson comes from A Journey Through the Modes — Part II: Finding Light in the Tension. We begin with a simple question: what happens when C major and E minor sound together? At the harp, they meet as C major 7—a color that can feel bright and tender at the same time. Follow the lesson, then try the idea slowly in your own improvising.

The full Finding Light in the Tension workshop goes deeper into Lydian color, major-seventh harmony, practical exercises, and more room to explore the sound at your harp.
