This book is the second volume of arrangements for the Celtic harp by MonikaMandelartz. The material encompasses diverse songs and tunes from the British Isles, commonly described as 'Celtic Music'. This type of music is often associated with the English publisher John Playford. In the 17th century, he published The English Dancing Master, which contains traditional music as well as tunes of his day (up to the Renaissance). Author Monika Mandelartz, a specialist in historical performance practice, followsPlayford's tradition by arranging parts of the collection for Celtic harp. Thereby, Mandelartz points out that her arrangements constitute a 'snapshot in time'. Her workemphasizes the idea that lively music always allows for change and variation - it must in order to survive. The book includes tunes such as De`il Take the Wars, Scot Cap (Edinburgh Castle), Upon a Summer's Day, Parson's Farewell, Welcome Home Old Rowland, Dissembling Love (The Lost Heart), An Italian Rant, Porter's Lament, Greenesleeves and Pudding Pies (Greenesleeves and Yellow Lace), Jenny Pluck Pears, Remember Me My Deir, Enfield Common, The Sword Dance, and Drive the Cold Winter Away.

La forêt fantastique, ouvrage en deux recueils illustrés, propose 10 pièces pédagogiques destinées aux cours semi-collectifs. Elles sont écrites pour 2 ou 3 élèves harpistes de 1er cycle. Ces pièces utilisent les ressources sonores de l'instrument et ses modes de jeu (sons xylo, pincés, ongle, glissés, sons sifflés, zingage...) et font aussi appel à la voix (poème, voix parlée, chantée). Chaque recueil propose une pièce d'écriture graphique, qui donnera une grande liberté aux élèves, ils seront ainsi déjà improvisateurs et créateurs de leur propre musique. Les thèmes abordés dans ces pièces sont inspirés de la nature et des animaux ' réels ou imaginaires ', des thèmes universels que chaque enfant expérimente par son vécu. Chaque pièce est lisible, attractive et parlante afin que chacun puisse se l'approprier. Élèves et professeurs peuvent laisser libre cours à leur imagination pour proposer des mises en scène lors des représentations publiques. 1. La lune s'ennuie 2. Forêts et saisons 3. Le dragon sort de son antre 4. La rivière 5. Charlotte, la marmotte 6. Un chouette hibou
