Harp Lesson | FORGET ME NOT | Anne Crosby Gaudet

Join Anne in the video tutorial to learn strategies for counting in a 6/8 time signature and gain even more confidence with the bonus rhythm practice worksheet that comes with your sheet music download. "Forget Me Not" is a sweet, lilting harp solo that feels light and breezy. This solo is small harp friendly and may be played on 25 strings or larger. A late elementary level player will feel comfortable with this piece. The left hand is limited to basic 1-5-8, 1-3-5 and 1-5 patterns and the right hand will place just 2 or 3 fingers with some simple linking.

Now that you are a master at counting in 6/8 time signatures, take a peek in the video description where I have included a list of more harp music in 6/8 time. Try Flight of the Heron or Drifting if you are elementary, or jump into Miss You or No Friend Like Music for an intermediate level. Or try composing your own music in 6/8!

[@carpenanne]

Clear teaching, thanks Anne. I think all your students must look forward to learning to play piano and harp as well as music theory at your studio.

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

Anne Carpen Making theory fun is definitely a thing in my piano studio ☺️

[@Tinykniter]

Such great instruction in counting! Thanks for explaining those important details.

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

Thank you Linda. Breaking down concepts is my happy place

[@debbiebammann8444]

I taught myself how to play my harp in 2003. But I couldn't understand sheet music 🎶. However, the 12 to 14 songs I play are a hot with people. I'm a humble person and I ask people not applaud.but say Amen! Sound mmo

[@birdwoodp3342]

Anne, your videos sound so attainable and that anyone can learn your pieces. Love that.

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

birdwood P That’s great to hear 🎶💕

[@karenharrison9786]

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

Karen Harrison You’re welcome, Karen! Thanks for watching 🎶💕

[@pjst.pierre8444]

Just bought that Beautiful piece! Thank you, Anne!💗. It is perfect!

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

You win the "1st to the Shop" prize! So glad you are excited to learn it!

[@Meltiqueful]

Very nice for harp therapy, meditative settings, church or as a lullaby! So peaceful and soothing!

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

Thank you Amelia! Yes, 6/8 is wonderful for creating a soothing lullaby mood.

[@Meltiqueful]

Watching this one again this morning; Anne, could you please sometime do a tutorial on counting sixteenth notes. I always tend to shy away from pieces with those! Thanks in advance.

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

Good idea, Amelia! I can definitely do that.

[@annavictoria4300]

This piece made me think of Twin Peaks theme... brought back memories...lol

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

You know, I never watched Twin Peaks! Maybe I will one day (after binge watching The West Wing).

[@AmandulaGarcia]

What was the tablet and the software you were using there? That was the clearest I've ever seen for writing in music notes!

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

@@AmandulaGarcia I made this video some years ago, but I think I was using my iPad Pro and an app called Noteshelf.

[@AmandulaGarcia]

@@annecrosbygaudetmusic Thanks so much for letting me know. I appreciate your approach to teaching the harp. Thanks again.

[@Saxthefan]

Just wondering should this be the next piece to learn after Shenandoah

[@annecrosbygaudetmusic]

I think this is a nice fit for after Shenandoah and the video lesson gives you a little extra support for counting in 6/8 time.
