Wow it's been so hot! I decided to shoot this scales video early in the morning at the lake, it was gorgeous! There were quite a few people around for early morning walks and swims, so I played music after recording the scales video. Do you recognize the song at the end of the video? Can you pick out some things that I did differently from the original?? Let me know how you are doing with your scales. I hope you are ready for a big level up because I've got a new project coming!
I’m not an absolute beginner anymore but still watch, enjoy and appreciate how you so articulately show the details that matter so much. You truly are an amazing teacher. 🙏🌸❤️
The takeaway from this lesson is that before plucking each note in the scale, the finger which will be playing the following note should already be placed. A very nice and important lesson!
I really enjoyed the mini lesson being held at the lake. Wonderful relaxing setting in which to instruct us. Not only was the lesson helpful it will give us ample opportunity to tackle "hover, open, place". Thanks! 👒
I learned a couple of things from this video, Anne, particularly about the thumb pop and about leaving fingers 3 and 4 in the palm when crossing in the ascending direction, though I feel a bit of tension when trying to keep them in the palm like that while opening 4 and 5. The lake environment made this little lesson especially nice and enjoyable!
I like to use the word “allow”, to remind my fingers not to force something that feels uncomfortable. Working slowly also helps my hand to relax between each note.
Hi Anne, what a wonderful location to play harp. Thanks so very much for this important technical tutorial! I notice that my fingers cramp often, so I eill practice over and over again. Kindest greetings!
Thanks Anne, this video is very clear and helpful. I enjoy your instructional videos and your compositions! Keep them coming. I need to practice the thumb pop up !
Hi Anne, I had sent you an email asking about what the X means in your fingering. But I watched this video and now I understand the X. Thank you, Eileen.
Lovely and informative video, as usual! Lately I’ve been learning more about modes, so I’ve been playing modal scales in they key of C. They are pleasant except for Locrian 😵💫🥴😑 Edited to add: I need to bring out Just for You. Love your additions!

love the fresh video Anne, cross overs are always helpful. Love your tune Just For You
Thanks Connie! I find it's good for my brain to transpose Just For You into a different key Just For Fun!
Amazing teaching! Thank you very much from Germany

This video Is answers to prayers Anne! 😊😊😊 I am learning all these songs and don’t know how to play a simple scale on the harp 😂
Thank you!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️
Great! Glad to help fill in the gaps 🙂🎶
Thank you for taking us the the lake with you, what a beautiful spot! And a wonderful practice session as well. It would make a good everyday warm-up.
Yes, a good everyday warmup and one that you can build upon! Thanks for watching, Leann!

It was fun teaching at the lake... one of the perks for harp players!

Terrific, I thought that would answer your question!
Thanks Anne
You’re welcome ☺️

Yes! Practice your scale technique through the modes 👍🏻🌟🌟🌟
I had no idea you are from Nova Scotia! I’m in Ottawa and was just thinking you remind me of a friend from NS!
🇨🇦Yay!
I love it! Thank you, Anne. May I know which microphone(or other setups) you are using for outdoor video? The audio quality is so good!🥰
Gosh, I think I was just using my little Shure MV-88 on my iPhone for this. I don't normally record outdoors, this was just a simple little set-up.
@@annecrosbygaudetmusic Wow! impressive. I will definitely get one Shure MV-88😍
Off topic here. You have so much water! How beautiful. Bet you don’t have any crocodile on there.
🤣 No crocodile in this lake! Phew!
