    • @pianocareer
      @pianocareer  4 года назад +1

      Hi! Double thirds and sixths will be covered in my progressive Scale & Arpeggio Course (available in the Members Area of PianoCareerAcademy.com). These variations are planned for level 8 (I'm currently up to Level 5 with this Course, and I have also posted a few Lessons for Level 7). I'm currently juggling many projects and Courses simultaneously - so I won't get to Level 8 for a while, but these variations are definitely coming in the near future! ;) By the way, here you can find the complete List of Tutorials available for our members (the step-by-step Lessons of our Scale Course can be found on this list as well): www.pianocareer.com/holistic-piano-playing/piano-career-academy-tutorials/
