Description

What a f'ing masterpiece! The content of the Cipher is off-the-charts brilliant. Really, really something. Really something. But as I spend time on this site, I can't get past the BEAUTY of the SITE. I'm not talking here about your theories, your writing, or your giant spirit. I am talking about your presentation. I've never heard a master play the Viola-de-Gambi (or whatever you call that bowed guitar) but I'm guessing it sounds like your web site LOOKS. Strikingly beautiful, and as you say in your credo ... healing. It's almost as if I have to call your WEB SITE symphonic. ( Laughing out loud ...I know what I'm talking about !) G-d bless you Roger, and quite simply ... thanks. A quote (by someone else) regarding your site - which I want to second “ . . loved it . . . As for the layout of text, use of whitespace, etc, it's the best I have seen in a while - and people should go see just to see how to lay out text for ease of readability . Great! David_NTL_UK ” Yours, Quinn the Eskimo, David Your site is excellent and I believe I will benefit from it. Your Cipher theory appeals to my need for mathematical order. I have taken a Junior College music theory course and I could only survive it by rote memorization. Your system is elegant. So, when will I see the book? DJR What an elegant site. I'm 41 and have been a classical singer for many years (Baroque stuff, mostly), yet am just beginning viola da gamba and lute . Alas, I have no music theory training (I'm an engineer by education) and so have been scanning the web to find info about lute tablature and just plain help for this fretted thing I'm trying to learn to play. This site answers *all* of my questions easily, *visually*, and intellectually. And its nice to look at too. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Jeffrey Rich Your numbering system is EXACTLY what I envisioned in my head as I've been learning in my mere 1.5 years. I'm a number curncher and cannot relate to the I, IV, V (I know what it is and how to use it but real "fret" numbers help). I want your book when it is published. Please respond to this email when it comes out!!!!! Dennis :-) Roger I've just discovered your website and I must congratulate you on the insight your system brings. As the usual average guitar and bass twiddler, I've come back to the instruments off and on over a twenty year period, only to hit that ceiling where I need more knowledge of theory to play the way I really want to, but the complexity of the fretboard gets me every time compared to the clarity of a keyboard. (Albeit the ability to move easily across keys with guitar and bass is great). Now I see a way to get to grips with this, not just learning things by rote with no true understanding of the relationship between notes. Congratulations on your hard work, and for making this a free access site. Many thanks Iain I have been a hobbyist composer with midi for some time now, yet I struggled with the seemingly contradictory teachings in a music theory textbook. I had tried using semitones myself, and still could not comprehend just where the 5 was in a perfect 5th...
