Companion CD to the Songbook-This companion CD will assist harp players in learning the pieces in the Pachelbel's Canon and Jesu Joy of Man's Desiring books. Since many will want to ?play along? as they learn Sylvia has recordedthese pieces slower than they are usually played and as ?straight? as possible with little or no expression or rhythmic variations. The Canon was recorded at a metronome marking of 92 and Jesu at 100. Inall of the duet versions one harp part is on one tract of the stereo and the second harp part (or the flute part) is on the other. If you can adjust the separate channels you can hear each part separately. The three versions ofthe Canon are played first in the original key of D and then in the key of G. All the versions of the Jesu are without repeats and go straight to the second ending.

The inspiration for this piece is found in many sudden observations of beautiful sceneries like sunbeams shining through clouds, snow crystals in winter time or icy landscapes. In a way too hasty world, the piece is meant to slow down a little and give you a moment of reflection on how mesmerizing the world is around us. / Date parution : 2022-11-29/ Recueil / Harpe

for Harp. Par VAJDA GERGELY. 'Come un meccanismo di precisione' (like a precision machine) - as György Ligeti wrote above one of his works. The two harp pieces by Gergely Vajda (*1973) also approach the instrument as a machine, moreover, as a machine that can produce several sounds and noises and create a specific polyphony from them. The two movements, composed in 2020 and 2022, are dedicated to the Ars Nova Ensemble and Collegium21, respectively. / Date parution : 2022-11-08/ Répertoire / Harpe

Music From The Disney Motion Picture Arranged For Harp; Tangled is Disney's popular animated film from 2010, based on the German fairy tale Rapunzel. This book includes two songs from the movie, arranged for lever or pedal harp by Sylvia Woods: I See the Light and Healing Incantation. Both pieces include lyrics, fingerings, and lever or pedal changes. I See the Light is the love song between Rapunzel and Flynn, sung in the boat during the lantern ceremony. This 5-page intermediate arrangement is in the key of C with F and G lever changes throughout. The range is 31 strings, from the C 2 octaves below middle C up to the E 2 octaves and 2 strings above middle C. The one-page Healing Incantation is the song that Rapunzel sings when her hair creates the magic. It is in the key of 1 sharp, with G and C lever changes. It can be played by advanced beginners with experience in making lever changes. The range is 22 strings, from the E almost 2 octaves below middle C, up to the E 9 strings above middle C.

oeuvre commandée par la Communauté d'agglomération Grand Paris Sud-Ouest à l'attention de ses conservatoires de musique, notamment le C.R.R. de Boulogne-Billancourt.Sur quatre notes, Ré-Mi-Sol-Lab, un chantonnement épisodique parcourt la pièce en arrière-plan. Dessus va se greffer un geste ascendant, un peu solennel, sous forme de phrases qui couvriront toute l'étendue de l'instrument, et dont les doubles sons au débit régulier devront respecter bientôt un accelerando et un crescendo. En contraste, un autre élément, au caractère souple, mélodique et expressif, décrit des courbes de direction descendante. Celles-ci surgissent à partir de deux notes fixes, Do#-Sib, qui reviennent obstinément, comme un signal. Deux cheminements évoluent donc dans des directions opposées, en s'entrecoupant l'un l'autre. Un jeu d'échos s'établit à partir de ces composants, et les met en perspective.La pièce demande de la part de l'interprète un jeu très coloré, avec une palette de nuances aussi diversifiée que possible.A l'écoute de cette musique, on ne doit pas percevoir de pulsation forte et mécanique.Les sons évoluent comme ceux de la nature, de façon souple. / Harpe Celtique Seule

Par POSTIC ANNE. Musiques traditionnelles arrangées pour la harpe celtique
Dans ce recueil, Anne Postic nous montre qu'aucun rythme, aucun thème, aucun enchaînement ne pose problème à la harpe celtique. On y trouve quelques danses irlandaises endiablées qu'on n'avait entendues jusqu'ici qu'à la flûte ou au violon. Ses basses, au lieu de scander la musique sur les temps forts, comme on l'entend si souvent dans les musiques traditionnelles, se promènent sous la mélodie, lui donnant un « swing » inventif et malicieux qui donne à sa musique sa couleur si particulière. Passant de la Bretagne à l'Écosse ou à l'Irlande, tout en nous faisant découvrir quelques mélodies encore inconnues, Anne réinvente la harpe celtique, swinguant entre tradition et modernité, nous invitant à danser au son de son instrument, imaginant chaque fois un accompagnement plus subtil : jamais la harpe n'a été plus vivante ! / Date parution : 2010-11-01/ Répertoire / Harpe

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

The composer writes: 'This piece was composed using as its basis the compositional technique of serialism in which a fixed series of notes are used to make the harmonic and melodic base of a piece. I looked at the twelve Munro???s on the Isle of Skye known as The Cuillin and used their height???s to get the twelve notes required in serialism. The tallest is Sg?rr Alasdair at 992 meters and Sg?rr a??? Mhadaidh is the shortest at 918 meters. I added together the number of meters to get a single number that could be related to a note in the scale. I wrote down the scale I had chosen and assigned each Cuillin a note the heights of the Cuillin gave me the order which gave me the tune Iuse. I decided not to use a conventional scale so I put on my B and F levers which gives the scale a darker colour that I feel matches the mystery of the Cuillin. Although the technique used to achieve the scale is serial the piece itself cannot be described as a serial piece and I have allowed the music to develop more freely and organically than a system would allow.'
