Split The Difference > First Verse Breakdown

Hi Harpers -

This week we start dissecting my Split The Difference piece, and we look into the split interval/octaves technique on the diatonic harp. As with any technique, it’s always a good idea to make sure you work on the technique by itself first before using it in a solo or song. So, if this technique is completely new to you, set aside some time to work on these tongue-split intervals and octaves that I explain. If you have been doing them, but not always cleanly, here is your chance to brush up on the technique…so dive in and have some fun with these octaves!

Like the new notes. It's going to be fun learning this, it took a while to start  understanding it after two weeks
