I was wondering if anyone can help me with an odd problem.
I am learning the advanced "You Raise Me Up" and there are multiple times I need to play an entire octave chord (ie.from D to D) but my hands are just a tad too small to make it an easy reach. Is there a technique I could use to make this easier for me.

Re: Small hands
Hello Jazzy,
Phil said in one of his youtube live lessons that when you can't reach you can roll your hand - for example play the first D with your thumb and then roll your hand to play the other D with your pinkie. Another option would be to simply only play one of the D's.
It doesn't help with the app marking the notes as wrong, but the more I learn about music, the more I realize that the end goal is NOT to play the music precisely as written.
Good luck and happy new year.
