Par SCOTT LAUREN. These five pieces were specially composed for fully-levered 34-string harps. They can also be played on other types of harps with some adaptation by the player. They are of Intermediate to Advanced standard and target one or two different techniques within each piece. With no lever changes but pre-set levers from the start, this collection is inspired by the natural world and the changing seasons. This collection of pieces is written especially for and dedicated to all who have started their harp journey later in life. I hope you enjoy learning & playing these pieces as much as I have enjoyed writing them. Lauren Scott / Date parution : 2021-12-09/ Recueil / Harpe
