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.

“Vari
ations on an Ancient
Tune” by Carlos
Salzedo is the third and
final work of a series
called Three
Pieces'for Solo Pedal
Harp. Difficult to
play, it requires good
mastering of the
instrument and of its
technique, including the
pedals. Using the full
range of the instrument,
this work features
numerous trills,
glissandos and
accidentals among other
technicalities and is
divided between really
fast and more quiet
parts. Really delightful,
this melodious piece is
composed of a main theme
and eleven variations:
Main Theme (Maestoso) is
composed of chords I. A
tempo, Graziamente II.
Tempo di Bourrée
III. Scherzando IV.
L'Istesso tempo V.
Maestoso VI.
Vigorosamente VII. Molto
piú lento VIII.
Vivo risoluto IX. Lento,
tempo di Barcaruola X.
Como un preludio XI. Fuga
Finishing on the main
theme “A
Tempo,” this
wonderful work is an
amazing piece to include
in a concert or a
recital. Carlos Salzedo
(1885-1961) was a French
harpist and composer who
wrote and transcribed
numerous pieces for the
harp. He also wrote some
pedagogical publications
for harpists.

Jolivet is a piece
for Flute, Bassoon and
the Harp lasting nearly
13 minutes. This piece is
really gentle and
restrained which
demonstrates the quality
ofJolivet’
s work but also reflects
that period of WWII when
France was under
occupation. These scores
are of medium level of
ability.
Pastore
les De
Noël f
eatures four
sections:L’é
toile (the Star), Les
Mages (the Wisemen), La
Vierge et l’Enfant
(the Virgin and the
Child) and Entrée
et Danse des Bergers (the
Shepherds’ dance).
Each of these parts
describes a part
oftheChristmas story,
starting with the Flute
and the Bassoon in a
duet, followed by the
entrance of the Harp to
settle the first part.
The second section is
quieter, expressing the
walk in the desert. The
Virgin and the Child
islike a lullaby and the
piece finishes on a
joyful dance to express
happiness and devotion.
André
Jolivet is a French
composer who was really
inspired by the
Antiquity, and had a
strong interest
foratonality. He also
wrote many chamber music
pieces, eleven concertos,
some orchestral and some
vocal music.

French
pianist and composer,
Serge Lancen (1922-2005)
studied at the Paris
Conservatoire where he
won first prize for
composition in 1949. His
professional career saw
him winning many prizes
for his compositions and
For Raphaele remains
popular in the Harp
repertoire. As
exemplified in For
Raphaele, Lancen's
compositional style
remained attached to the
French characteristics,
featuring luscious
melodies, balance and
clarity of tone. With a
typical performance
lasting about 2 and a
half minutes, Pour
Raphaele demonstrates the
versatility of the Harp,
addressing flourishes,
dotted rhythms,
syncopation and
variations in dynamics.
For all intermediate
harpists, Lancen's For
Raphaele is a delightful
addition to the
instrument's repertoire.

“Born
in 1929, French composer,
Pierick Houdy was a
student of Olivier
Messiaen at the Paris
Conservatoire. He led a
successful career as
director of many
institutions and choirs,
and his compositions
remain known to this day,
Sonata for Harp being no
exception. Composed in
1983, Sonata for Harp
contributes to a
substantial catalogue of
works by Houdy. The
Sonata comprises three
movements and a typical
performance lasts about
twelve minutes. The work
is modern in style and
addresses a range of
technical features.
Suitable for advanced
harpists, Houdy's Sonata
for Harp is an exciting
addition to the
contemporary Harp
repertoire and makes for
a evocative
performance.&rdquo.

A
fantastic collection of

especially for the Irish-
or Concertharp, by Dutch
harpist, Rosetty. Various
different styles and
genres are featured here
from Samba to Folk and
Reggae to Romantic

focus on the rhythms and
syncopation of each
style. An accompanying CD
contains both
demonstration tracks with
the full harp solo to
hear how each piece
should sound, and a
version with
accompaniment only for
performance and
practice.
