Freedom from Sheet Music!

  • Improvisation liberates you from the constraints of written music.
  • It allows you to create in the moment, expressing your unique musical voice.
  • The 5-Day Harp Improv Challenge Adventure teaches you one of THE MOST POWERFUL forms of improvisation: using a chord progression – but you don’t need to know ANYTHING about chords to join and learn to improvise.
  • And once you do, this freedom opens up a world of musical possibilities.
