Arranged for Harp-Say Something is an original song by the American duo A Great Big World. The lyrics are about letting go when a relationship ends. It became an international hit when Christina Aguilera joined A Great Big World on a re-recorded version in 2013. Sylvia Woods has made a 4-page advanced beginner to intermediate arrangement playable on either lever or pedal harp. This music features a pedal point (also called a pedal note or pedal tone) which is a sustained or continually repeated note that is held constant while harmonies change in other parts. A pedal point is usually found in the bass but here it is in the middle register. Virtually every measure includes a middle Cnote on the downbeat. Sometimes it is played with the right hand and at other times with the left. But it is almost always there. This pedal point harmony is what originally drew me into this beautiful piece of music the first time I heard it on the radio. The music is in the key of C and no sharping levers are required as there are no lever changes. Fingerings lyrics and chord symbols are included. The harp range required is 24 strings from a low C up to an E. It can be played on 24-string to 26-string harps with a C as the lowest string if you play both hands an octave higher than written.

Par . Peut-on jouer des morceaux de musique actuelle sur un instrument traditionnel comme la harpe ? Bien sûr que oui ! Et pas seulement la harpe à pédales classique, mais aussi la harpe à crochets (ou « harpe celtique »), plus petite et plus maniable, dont l\'étonnante palette sonore ne cesse de gagner en notoriété. La harpiste et professeure de harpe Anne Kox-Schindelin propose ici 14 titres populaires de bandes originales de films et séries télévisées de ces dernières décennies. Ses arrangements sont parfaitement adaptés aux possibilités de la harpe à crochets à 34 cordes et conviennent tout autant à la harpe à pédales. Ils viennent ainsi combler une véritable lacune dans le répertoire de la harpe ! / Date parution : 2022-06-14/ Recueil / Harpe
