This was my first piece with lever changes and I can highly recommend it. The lever changes were really well and in detail explained so it felt effortless to integrate them into playing. I chose this piece as my first classical music to play before I start learning Für Elise, which has even more lever changes. Now I feel well prepared for it. This arrangement sounds really beautiful and is fun to play once the fingering has sunken into the muscle memory. Thank you Carrie for all the useful tips about the different techniques and how to master them and also for always emphazising the importance of the hand and finger position while playing.

I highly recommend ‘Swan Lake” with a great teacher! It was my first course as an early intermediate player and I learned so much. Cross-under fingering, rolled chords and improving my technique. I completed the course in just over one month! Thank you!!!!!

I’m an intermediate harp player and this music piece has quite some repetition however not to become boring. It makes that you can really practice playing by memory and work on dynamics and pace of the music. It s a great piece for background music during any event or as an intermezzo.
