Castle on a Cloud is sung by the child Cosette in Les Misérables. It is a hopeful song of her imaginary world where life is beautiful and she is not subjected to the drudgery of her hard existence. Sylvia Woods has arranged this lilting song for lever or pedal harp. There are 7 lever changes in the piece so it is for lower intermediate to intermediate level players. Fingerings and lyrics are included as well as lever and pedal changes. Two 2-page versions are included: one for lever harps tuned to C and the other for lever harps tuned to flats. Pedal harpists can play either version. The arrangement for lever harps tuned to C is in the key of D (2 sharps) with A and Clever changes needed. The arrangement for lever harps tuned to flats is in the key of C with B and G lever changes needed. Either version may be played on most small harps with about 26 strings if you play everything an octave higher than written. There are special instructions in the introduction telling you what you'll need to change if you have a small harp.

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 Étude De Concert Au Matin is no exception. Composed in 1940 Étude De Concert Au Matin 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 Étude De Concert Au Matin is suitable to all advanced harpists seeking to explore variedrepertoire on the instrument.
