When I was composing this tune, I envisioned staring up into a sky full of stars and imagining what it would be like to fly through space. The left hand of this song are entirely made up of 7th chords, which gives the song a unique flavor. There are 2 keys provided, C and G, playable for both floor and lap double strung harps. No lever changes required.

Everyone enjoys Celtic Folk Songs and Folk Hymns but not all realize that often they can be one and the same. A hymn text has often found its home in a folk song and a secular text sometimes finds a home in a hymn tune. This collection has a little of both. All but one of the tunes in this collection are of Celtic origin. The exception, ?Amazing Grace,? is a folk hymn of unknown origin that has all the markings of a Celtic Tune, including a pentatonic harmonic foundation.
For the harpists who also like to understand the history of a tune or even sing along, a variety of texts along with information about the tune and the lyrics can be found in the back of this book in the ?Notes on the Tunes.?
