*The first step  

*The first step that was stated was to make sure that your instrument is in tune. This is of course a prerequisite for you to learn how any instrument sounds as it should sound. There is a balance involved in tuning any instrument. The adjustments must be made so that the appropriate frequencies are attained of vibration and in so doing attention is paid to the relationship of each frequency, the one to the other.

*The second step  

*The second step that was offered is to explore your instrument, to play with the awareness and understanding of your instrument and explore its dimensions, what is possible, what might be possible. Much of this may be aided by another individual who has spent time exploring and can then show you some tricks of the trade as it were and point you in directions that facilitate your awareness and understanding.

*Step three

*Step three that was referred to in this learning process is then having attained the skill and abilities, the basic knowledge of how the instrument works, it then becomes your privilege to stop and listen and hear what the universe is playing, hear what your individual hearts would have you play, to hear what others are playing that you may choose to harmonize with. But to simply be in that place of hearing, of awareness of all that is transpiring around you means that you and your instrument are now part of the gigantic masterpiece that is creative expression. Once you have devoted yourselves to these steps you may largely forget them for you have integrated the awareness, skills and now you are attempting to use these to fulfill the creative desires and you need not spend over much time to the "how to" part of the lesson, rather you can let go of the focus on skills and focus more on that which is the purpose for having learned these skills, the expression of the individual.
