Written by the South Korean composer “Yiruma” in 2001, this is one of the most well-known modern classical piano pieces. The name of the piece brings to mind beautiful images of flowing water and peaceful places. Christy-Lyn’s arrangement of this piece stays true to the feeling of the piano piece, but the chords and fingering are carefully adapted to harp so that it feels “right”. The addition of tasteful rolled chords and a glissando makes this piece a showstopper that you can be really proud to play!

Difficulty level & Skills required
Advanced: The right hand melody has fast passages with crossing over and under, complex placement shapes, fast jumps, grace notes, rolled chords, and a gliss that ends on a specific note. The left hand has lots of 10ths, alternating with 9ths and octaves. The piece has sections that are busy with both hands at the same time, so that it is challenging to know where to look.

This was my first course with Christy Lyn and it was so great! I wanted to learn River flows in you without sheets and I did it! Christy Lyn teaches so well that I now know how to practice other pieces, too. There is one piece I practiced over and over for years now and I couldn’t play it at all but now in one week I got it! Thank you so much!

This is a beautiful piece and Christy-Lyn does a great job breaking down the more challenging parts. I’m still working on the artistry and timing, but the video course helped me learn this in a fraction of the time it would have taken me with just the sheet music.

I am a good intermediate player. This song was a real reach for me. I work with a local instructor and together we got this song to a decent level where we focused on knowing the notes well as well as steady rhythm. However, it will be a while before I get it up to tempo. So Elizabeth (instructor) and I agreed to table it for a few months with the idea that when we come back to it, I’ll be that much more experienced and can increase the tempo. What a great song for me to learn!

I love your lessons. Delightfully inspiring, encouraging and uplifting. Your passion shines through and lights up the screen, making me feel like it is a personal one-on-one guidance. I am enjoying the definite and relaxed progress. The essence of harp felt.

Really enjoyed learning this beautiful piece. I was skeptical at first about attempting an ‘advanced’ course but with Christy-Lyn’s tutoring, from the first lesson I felt this song was achievable. I’m so pleased I accepted the challenge. Whilst I’m still working on the ‘flow’ of my river, even when played slowly this song is peaceful and meditative.

I have really enjoyed learning “River Flows in You”. I never thought I could do an advanced course. But Christy-Lyn helped me along. I still need to bring it up to speed and add expression. I plan to keep practicing it a lot.
