French harpist, composer and teacher, Marcel Tournier (1879-1951) wrote important solo repertoire for the harp which expanded the harmonic and technical possibilities of the instrument. His Morning Concert Study is no exception. Composed in 1940, Morning Concert Study remains regularly performed and recorded by harpists. The piece is marked allegro and is in compound meter. Tonality and rhythm are sublimely exploited and there is much use of extended technique. Tournier's Morning Concert Study is suitable to all advanced harpists seeking to explore varied repertoire on the instrument.

This enigmatic and often playful work for harp incorporates scalar material reminiscent of the Blues, with unpredictable shocks of pedal glissandi peppering the Introduction with a chromatic motif. The Scherzo that follows presents a more animated working out of the Introduction's materials, with polyrhythmic passages consisting of triplets grouped in fives, in addition to other rhythmic manifestations of the number five. Together, the two sections make for an entertaining and expressive addition to a harpist's repertoire.
