Hello wahoo. Note that in

Hello wahoo. Note that in Level 5 I state which examples are at your level for Solo Harmonica Study 3. This study is an advanced study, but some of them are doable at your level. Yeah, dig into those octaves, it's a great technique.

Side note, for your LOA you're not required to do the octaves, so you have time to dial them in.
