Mauri
ce Ravel's Mother Goose
is arguably one of the
most well-known and
well-loved of Ravel's
works. Whether one
encounters it first in
its original iteration
for piano, four hands, or
in the sweeping orchestra
transcription, Mother
Goose leaves an
impression that isn't
soon forgotten. The
pieces are short, simple,
and descriptive, but are
nonetheless ravishing,
and beautifully showcase
Ravel’s genius and
compositional skills. Now
for the first time, the
entire work has been
transcribed for solo harp
by harpist Carl Swanson.
Each of the original five
movements has been
carefully edited, making
the pieces playable on
solo harp, while keeping
the spirit that Ravel
intended. Here is a
valuable addition to the
harp repertoire by one of
the greatest composers of
the twentieth century,
Maurice Ravel.

French
harpist and composer,
Henriette Renié
(1875-1956) lived in
poverty for much of her
life. However, this did
not stop her from
composing significant
works for the harp,
including Grandmother
Tells a Story, an
easy piece for beginners
of the instrument.
Despite being a talented
composer, Renié
lived at a time where
fame and success was
socially unacceptable for
women. In 1940,
Grandmother Tells a
Story was published.
As a easy piece, this
Renié work is
suitable for beginners of
the instrument, including
detailed performance
directions and
fingerings. For all
beginner harpists,
Renié's
Grandmother Tells a
Story is an exciting
and varied addition to
the repertoire.

Martin-Pier
re Dalvimare, born in
1770, in Dreux
(Eure-et-Loir), from a
distinguished family,
learnt music as an
entertainment art, and
was obliged to make it a
resource for his
existence, after the
troubles of the
Revolution in 1789. He
had acquired a remarkable
talent for the harp; when
he arrived in Paris he
made a very good
impression. Then, man of
the world, knowledgeable
in many fields, which is
rare for a musician, he
was welcome everywhere,
and very soon came in
friendly terms with some
of the most renowned
artists and men of
letters of his times. The
marriage certificate of
the poet Legouve (15
pluviose of the year XI,
or February 1803, 12th
municipality of Paris),
shows that Dalvimare was
one of his best men and
that at the time he was
thirty-two years old. He
became harpist of the
Opera in the year VIII
(1800), and was
definitively confirmed in
the month of fructidor of
the year IX. At the time
of the institution of the
emperor Napoleon's
private music, M.
Dalvimare was appointed
as his harpist. In
September 1807 he
obtained the title of
harp master of the
empress Josephine. A
lucky change of his
fortune allowed this
artist to renounce to
practise his talent for
living, he resigned from
all of his positions on
March, 12th, 1812, and he
retired in Dreux, where
he still was living in
1837. For a peculiar
weakness, he does not
like to speak about his
artist career, which had
been entirely honourable,
and he would like to
forget his success too.
His first composition was
a symphonie concertant
for harp and horn, which
he composed with Frederic
Duvernoy, and published
in the year VII (1798);
notwithstanding, he
counted as his first opus
a collection of romances
with accompaniment of
piano or harp, which he
later published with
Pleyel.
In 1809
Dalvimare composed, for
the theatre Feydeau, a
one-act opera-comique
called The Marriage for
Imprudence. The music was
weak; the work did not
succeed, and people used
to say that the greatest
imprudence had been the
one of the authors who
had it performed.
Nevertheless, the score
of this opera was
published in Paris by
erard. (Francois-Joseph
Fetis).

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 C note
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.

The
viola solo courbe 2 is
based on an excerpt from
the viola part in the
Trio for flute, viola and
harp << courbes >> -
sequences. In the densest
time curve of this piece
the viola plays the
leading role for a span
of almost three minutes.
This material is taken
from the Trio, presented
and divided into separate
parts. courbe 2 is three
times longer in duration
than the Trio excerpt
from which it is derived.
The musical text of the
individual fragments
remains as it is in the
original, but, pulsating,
demarcated in seconds.
Fissures emerge between
the fragments, windows
open: - to harmonic
fields, central sounds,
taken over from the
reverberations, from
which new tone material
is derived; the fields in
turn are distorted and
spacialised by the
electronics - to metrical
structures and pulses
freed from the individual
motives of the original
musical text, which forms
new variants in
interaction with these
fields. Thus in courbe 2
which, as already
indicated, is three times
longer in duration than
the original, three
musical levels are
interpenetrated, whereby
all three are derived
from one tone, which
plays an absolutely
central role in most of
my works. It is a
reference to the French
writer Anne-Marie Albiach
(and to her great text <<
H II >> lineaires), and
it remains as the only
tone at the end of the
piece, definitively,
determining everything, b

French
harpist and composer,
Henriette Renié
(1875-1956) lived in
poverty for much of her
life. However, this did
not stop her from
composing significant
works for the harp,
including Legend of
the Elves inspired
the poem of the same name
by French poet, Leconte
de Lisle. Despite being a
talented composer,
Renié lived at a
time where fame and
success was socially
unacceptable for women.
In 1903, she composed her
substantial work for
harp, Legend of the
Elves. As a highly
virtuosic work, this
Renié piece
displays use of cadenza
passages, exploitation of
tonality, complex rhythms
and variety in
performance directions.
For advanced harpists,
Renié's Legend
of the Elves is an
exciting and varied
addition to the
repertoire.
