Th
e history of the
Viggianesi, strolling
musicians, winds over a
period of about four
centuries and esprimeun
‘unicum’
musically and
anthropologically. Heirs
of a travelling musical
tradition that from the
late Middle Ages
inhabited more than just
the streets of the
Kingdom of Sicily and
Naples, the harpists of
this extraordinary story
made their first
appearances as early as
the end of the 1600s
engaged in musical
practices at
shrines. Armed with an
urgent need to make a
living together with a
strong musical
inclination, adaptability
and versatility, the
groups of musicians,
almost always belonging
to the same family
circle, became the
promoters of the great
Italian musical tradition
(Southern in particular),
and with their harps on
their shoulders they
became the identification
symbol of a well-defined
and limited area of
Italy: the Agri Valley,
in Basilicata. From
the many documents
examined, a very wide and
varied musical repertoire
emerges mixing the
pastoral tradition with
classical tradition
(mainly opera, devotional
music with songs from the
cities (from the
Neapolitan tradition to
international
production). The pastoral
repertoire, the subject
of this publication,
consists of a strongly
characterized native
repertoire which the
Viggianesi had
consolidated in both
public and private ritual
occasions in their native
land, even if performing
in distant
lands.

collection is included

Castle on a
Cloud is sung by the
child Cosette in Les
Miserables. 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 C lever
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.

Johannes
Snoer is not one of the
most remembered harpists
today, but his didactic
work was really important
and can still be useful
today. For didactic
purposes, he also
published collections of
simple pieces by great
composers transcribed for
harp. Among his
transcriptions there is
the Adagio from Sonata n.
5 in C minor, op. 10 no.
1, by Ludwig van
Beethoven, subject of
this edition. The
original musical text has
been left unchanged, only
the ornamentation has
been written in full and
the harp fingerings and
indications relating to
the movement of the
pedals have been added.
The work brings the
dedication to Mr. H.
Rutters, probably a
relative of his wife
Antoinette.
