Harp Lessons - Hong Kong
On-Line Lessons with a world class professional harpist!
Hello Hong Kong harpists! I am an accomplished harpist as a performer, recording artist and teacher. I have many advanced students however do not limit myself to working with advanced performers. Everyone begins somewhere no matter where they finish. For those interested in advancing themselves on the instrument it is important to start out with strong technique and musicality as correcting later can be difficult and time consuming. Many of my students have gone on to become professional harps, recording artists, and even composers. Many others enjoy performing for their own enjoyment.
My recordings have received world wide critical acclaim, a JUNO award nomination for solo classical album of the year and apple music top listing feature on the harp. I have toured extensively as a soloist and in ensemble. As a teacher I have started and trained many of Canada's exceptional harpists..
Since I have offered online lessons students have come to me from Europe, United States and Asia. Location is no longer the limiting factor. Lessons can be at home, school, cottage or while travelling. Time zone situations can be accommodated. I have locations in Canada and Europe and spend time in each location. Lessons are in English or French.
I welcome you to read my full biography and view my videos and listen to my recordings on line.
Testimonial - Leung from Hong Kong
Caroline 是一個專業的豎琴老師,雖然我們是用線上形式上課,但她的專業能力無阻她的教學,她能清晰地指導我音準、拍子、音色、踏板轉換。在她的指導下,我覺得自己在手指靈活性上有進步,而且對於樂曲有新的領悟。她亦會按我的能力及強項揀選樂曲。
另外,Caroline是一個十分親切的人,跟她上堂十分愉快,既有明確的目標追求,但不會有很大壓力,加上老師是十分具鼓勵性,所以我是十分開心在豎琴學習上有Caroline的指導。
Translation - Caroline is a professional harp teacher. Although we take classes online this does not hinder her teaching. She can clearly guide me in pitch, time, timbre, and pedal switching. Under her guidance, I feel that I have improved my finger flexibility and gained a new understanding of music. She also chooses music based on my abilities and strengths.
In addition, Caroline is a very kind person, and it is very pleasant to attend class with her. She has clear goals to pursue, but there is not a lot of pressure. In addition, the teacher is very encouraging, so I am very happy to learn the harp. Caroline's guidance.
