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.
