This arrangement sounds classic and everyone will recognise it, but it also has some wonderful interest for intermediate players: 7th chords which give a slightly jazzy harmony and a few unexpected notes that perk up your ears. It’s great for intermediate harpists and advanced harpists who have limited time, because it sits well under the fingers and feels relatively easy to play, but sounds lush and interesting.
Level: Mid-Intermediate. The left hand accompaniment is complex and varied, including long series of overlapping brackets using all the fingers, and it moves around a lot. The right hand plays the melody with lots overlapping brackets and sometimes a rolled chord for emphasis.
Type of harp: Lever or pedal harp. 33 string harp or bigger.
Range: Lowest note is G, one and a half octaves below middle C. Highest note is B one and a half octaves above middle C.
Levers: It is in the key of G (with F levers). No lever changes are included.
Product: Video Course with multiple lessons to learn Danny Boy (mid-intermediate), and the sheet music for Danny Boy (mid-intermediate).
Is your practice a waste of time?
Most of us follow this pattern: get excited by a new piece, get the sheet music, try to figure out the notes. If you just play the piece over enough times, eventually it will sound smooth and perfect… right?
Â
Wrong! You might see some improvement after hours of practicing, but when you come back on another day it all falls to pieces again. Instead of being excited to play the harp, practicing makes you feel exhausted and discouraged.
Â
How can others make it look so easy? Is there something you’re missing?

Methodical learning: The secret to learning more in less time
What’s missing from most people’s harp journey is Methodical Learning: the kind of practice that ACTUALLY leads to success.Â
Â
Instead of just playing a piece many times and hoping that it will improve, Methodical Learning uses proven strategies to increase your skill level and apply good technique at the same time as learning the notes of a new piece, so that you have all the tools to play smoothly, without pausing or fumbling for notes. Â
Â
Practicing effectively is the most important skill you will EVER master in your harp journey. It’s been proven over and over again: when you apply the Methodical Learning principles, your playing with improve dramatically.Â
Â
And you don’t have to do only boring exercises until you are ‘good enough’ to play something that sounds nice; you can learn beautiful pieces right from the start, because you are working on foundational technique as you go.
Â
Once you master the ability to quickly and confidently practice a new piece until it’s fluent, the whole world of beautiful harp pieces awaits!
