The third piece in the Michael Aaron Piano Course, Grade 3, titled “Water Lilies,” is usually difficult for some students. Lots of things are going on in this piece:
1. Four flats make it a A-flat Major key signature.
2. Octave jumping, both hands must move around.
3. Augmented chords sound wrong for unaccustomed ears.
This tutorial moves a bit quickly to save time, but practice with the music in front of you so that you can read the notation as you learn from the video.
