Compositional/Improvisational Approach
by Dorian Wallace
"Teaching should be such that what is offered is perceived as a valuable gift and not as hard duty. Never regard study as duty but as the enviable opportunity to learn to know the liberating influence of beauty in the realm of the spirit for your own personal joy and to the profit of the community to which your later work belongs."
-Albert Einstein

Ichonautics (from the ancient Greek words ήχος íchos, meaning "sound", and ναυτική nautikē, meaning "navigation") is a musical philosophy and compositional/improvisational approach developed by composer Dorian Wallace that aims to unlock and expand one’s mental space for creative expression and discovery. This approach is open to everyone including professionals, conservatory trained, self taught musicians, and amateurs.
Mr. Wallace is available for lessons, masterclasses, and guest artist residencies.
