this was great, what happens when you double 7ths?
also do you offer private lessons?

[alejandronegrin]

Thank you for all your tips. Could you make a video about the harp in an Orchestra, sort of glissando, etc?

Those chords are expensive! I mean...rich! LOL

Hi Chris, what about chord inversions? Is it still fine to double the 3rds in that case?
