Welcome to our new look!

We've got a new look! Take a peek and let us know what you think.

We’re excited to unveil a new look at Harp Column Academy! We designed everything from the ground up with the goal of making it easier for you to find the lessons you want to watch. We’ve got new searching and filtering tools so you can jump right to the topics you want to know more about, like “arpeggios,” or “jazz,” or your favorite HCA instructors.

Our new system is not centered around a “course” structure, so you can more easily hop around and explore all the lessons in any order that suits you. Want to dive deep into a particular technique topic like “harmonics?” You can now jump straight to the lessons page to find all the lessons on HCA that reference this topic. Be sure to check out our searching tips for more on how to find lessons.

Not sure where to start? We’ve hand-picked some of our favorite HCA lessons and put them right at the top of the home page (you’ll need to log in first to see our recommendations). Want to watch a favorite lesson again? Save lessons you like anywhere you see the “heart” icon, or use the checkbox under the lesson video to mark a lesson “watched.” You can jump to these lessons quickly on your my list page.

We hope you like our new look and have a great time exploring Harp Column Academy!
