Solo, Duo, Trio

Solo means you can play your part. On demand (live or recorded)

Duo means you can play with someone else.

Trio means your duo can support a soloist. On demand (live or recorded)

Imagine your feelings of self-efficacy and well-earned confidence (through perseverence and resilience) that come from demonstrating such levels of high performance. You don’t need to be a musician to experience this. It’s for everyone.

Our projects all include tasks that allow you to demonstrate high performance at each level, as you progress to completion. Usually these team projects are added to “capstone projects” as valuable evidence.

Legacy Gratitude

The highest level combines previous levels, so we are grateful that so many cultures over thousands of years have understood the power of three. We are grateful to the ancestors for allowing us ways to communicate beyond words. Images conveyed stories before the first words sounded, our learning is deepened exponentially as we:

  • learn to receive and express information in more ways
  • learn to combine ways to share stories as fitting

The first trio image we’ll use goes back the farthest, to show the elements that must balance for wellbeing: body, mind and spirit. Our use of the TriSpiral to show how we can look from three perspectives as needed originates here:

While we won’t agree on everything, agreement is not needed to advance.

  • We do agree that by honoring ancestors, we must create brave spaces, where acknowledgement of spirit or soul is welcomed with respect (rather than avoided either through fear of conflict or desire to dominate)
  • We agree that all cultures have aspects that can be learned from, and must be respected to enact new realities that result in cultures of belonging, safety and care.

Here is the poem An Invitation to Brave Space, by Mickey Scottbey Jones
