I learned the early intermediate version of Annie’s song, and straight away upped my challenge level to the late intermediate. This piece stretches my ability, but it sounds so beautiful, and gives me a great motivation to keep practicing! I know these more advanced finger positions will serve me well, in my journey with the harp. I am so grateful for the step by step instructions. I highly recommend this course!

There are many lovely pieces in the Learning the Harp shop, but this is quite possibly my favourite! Carrie’s arrangement of this classic John Denver song is outstanding. Each time I sit down to practice it, I feel incredibly motivated to do it justice. Thank you, Carrie!!!
