Old Songs is a small lovely piece from Pièces de Genre op.10 by Jules Massenet
this edition for lever harp include two different arrangements

The score is taken from the book Four Romantic French Songs (Quatre Chansons Romantiques) arranged for lever harp
​This book contains four pieces of music from late French Romanticism, arranged for lever harp. In all the pieces the timbre resources of the instrument are exploited to the maximum, with the use of harmonics sounds, notes at the soundboard, glissandos etc. Nevertheless, the arrangements are of intermediate difficulty, accessible to non-professional instrumentalists and students.

This expressive romantic piece is often played by violin and and an accompaniment instrument, but it makes a lovely solo for harp. I play it at nursing homes, Valentine's Day concerts, wedding receptions and other classy events.

There are a number of pedal changes, but the tempo is slow and very flexible, so I don't find them too difficult.

The popular Latin prayer Ave Maria, originally published as Méditation sur le Premier Prélude de Piano de S. Bach by the French Romantic composer Charles Gounod is arranged here for pedal harp. The piece consists of a melody that he superimposed over an only very slightly changed version of the Prelude No. 1 in C major, BWV 846, from J. S. Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier. Both a version with annotated fingering and pedals and a blank version are included. The piece consists of 3 pages.

TRUE LOVE'S VOW (pedal harp solo) is a love theme from an imaginary movie... inspiring and achingly romantic. Composed by Stephanie Bennett ("One of our country's top harpists" - the Hollywood Reporter), it is a selection on the CD "A Beautiful Classic Wedding" by Lace & Roses Music, (recording available at CDBaby.com and at iTunes: regular version at https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/a-beautiful-classic-wedding-vol-1-solo-harp/1246578509

or Mastered for iTunes version at https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/a-beautiful-classic-wedding-vol-1-solo-harp-dj-edition/1245306750.)

The sentiment expressed by the title is especially perfect for weddings! It also makes a lovely harp solo for any elegant occasion.

It is meticulously notated with harp fingerings, pedal changes, muffles, and a page of performance notes explaining all the notations. If printed on paper, the one page turn (after the second page of music) is carefully planned to be doable. There are 4 pages of music, 1 page of performance notes (and some extra pages to make sure that the page turns turn out correctly). 

The level is intermediate for pedal harpists.

The French Romantic composer Charles Gounod added a beautiful melody to the Prelude in C by Baroque master Johann Sebastian Bach, to create this beloved and inspiring Ave Maria.

This pedal harp solo arranged by Stephanie Bennett (ASCAP) has been meticulously notated with fingerings, as well as tempo and dynamics markings.

Great for any classical-music setting, & for any Christian occasion (weddings, funerals, christenings, Christmas, etc.)

If you print it out on paper, remember that the ODD numbered pages go on your LEFT and the EVEN numbered pages go on your right. Laid out this way, there will be only one easy page turn (from page 3 to page 4).

If you take the repeat, it?s about 4 minutes long. If you skip the repeat (go directly to 2nd ending), it?s about 2 minutes & 15 seconds.
