Simon Holt
's the man in the wind
and the west moon was
composed for Solo Harp in
2013, having been
commissioned by The Tanza
Trust. The piece takes
its title from a line in
a Dylan Thomas poem named
'And death shall have no
dominion'. The four
sections of the work see
shifting harmonies
throughout, with the
first section repeating
but also changing ever so
subtly. The unique thing
about the piece is that
each section is
dynamically different,
but is left open to
interpretation by the
player. The man in
the wind and the west
moon was
first performed on the
2nd of June 2014 at
Milton Court Concert Hall
in London by Alex Rider.
The piece lasts around
7minutes, and the bottom
C and D strings should be
tuned to C# and D#
respectively.

Whizzing,
growling and rattling
– you can produce
all kinds of sounds with
the harp, not just the
fairy-tale shimmer and
glissandos that you first
think of. Lotta
Wennäkoski composed
Sigla for harp and
orchestra (2021-2022) in
close collaboration with
the harpist Sivan Magen,
to whom the concerto is
dedicated. The title of
the concerto, Sigla, has
different meanings in
different languages. In
Italian, it means a
jingle; in Icelandic, it
means sailing; and in
Tagalog, spoken in the
Philippines, it means
vivaciousness or
enthusiasm. Wennäkoski
has not specifically
referenced these in the
movements of the concerto
as such, but she does
allow that the various
meanings of the word may
be identified with the
music according to the
listener’s
perception.
The
recording of the work
(Ondine ODE1420-2) was
premiered with the
Gramophone award as the
the best release in the
contemporary category in
October 2023.

I
have always been fond of
writing works for
specific people or
organizations. It has
been my good fortune
during most of my
creative career to be
asked to compose for many
extraordinary performers.
The Sonata for
Harpsichord Solo is such
a case in point: it was
written in 1982 for
Barbara Harbach, a superb
performer, close friend,
and collaborator on many
musical projects. The
Sonata was premiered on
March 2, 1984, in a
recital given by Dr.
Harbach at Nazareth
College in Rochester, New
York. During my formative
years as a composer, one
seldom heard of the
harpsichord as a modern
instrument, though while
I attended undergraduate
school at Boston
University, some of us
banded together to
construct a small
harpsichord from one of
the first do-it-yourself
kits which began to
appear in the late '40s.
It was also during this
time that I heard the
Sonatina for Violin and
Harpsichord by my teacher
Walter Piston and
consequently specified
that the accompanying
instrument for my second
violin sonata could
either be a piano or a
harpsichord. It was not
until recently, however,
that my interest in the
harpsichord as a solo
instrument for new music
was aroused. This was
because of the emergence
of so many young
virtuosi, such as Barbara
Harbach, who are
interested in the
performance of new music
besides the great
harpsichord music of the
Classical, Baroque, and
pre-Baroque eras. The
keyboard music of
Domenico Scarlatti has
always intrigued and
fascinated me. The
brevity, excitement, and
clarity of this sparkling
music is charming as well
as exhilarating. It is
this type of Baroque
sonata that inspired the
conception and form of my
harpsichord sonata. The
entire work is loosely
based on the musical
translation of Barabara
Harbach's name,
especially the conflict
of the B (B-flat) and H
(B-natural in German
notation). This secondo
rub or dissonance
especially pervades the
first movement, which is
in a modified sonata
form, pitting jagged and
tense melodic elements
against most lyrical and
smooth lines. This second
movement is a song-like
melody accompanied by
rolled chords which may
be played on the lute
stop of the instrument if
this sonata is performed
on a two-manual
harpsichord. The final
movement is an
ever-driving joyous
toccata which brings the
work to an exciting close
with a coda made up of
accelerating repeated
chords. --Samuel
Adler.

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).

Greek
mythology seems
spontaneously to have
offered the figure of
linos as the central
character in a work for
solo harp. (Linos was a
poet, believed to be the
brother of Orpheus, and
according to Greek
tradition no greater
musician ever appeared
among mankind.) The
musical material,
conforming to the
characteristics of the
harp, consits of two
interesting seven-degree
note rows incorporating
all the possible pedal
combinations, their
mirror inversions and the
five-degree noterows that
fit between them. The
nine-section composition
is made up of scenes from
the imagined life of
Linos, an imagined
'Linos's hymn', and
laments played in his
honour.

Written by
Marcel Grandjany on a
tune of Haydn, Fantasy is
a piece for Harp that
includes 5 variations of
the main theme. Ideally
to be played on pedal
Harp, it would fit the
skills and abilities of
advanced Harp players.
The technical
difficulties encountered
are various as this piece
involves some
hand-crossings,
arpeggios, natural
harmonies, accidental
alterations as well as
some pedal changes.
Marcel Grandjany is a
French-born American who
lived in the 20th
century. He studied with
Alphonse Hasselmans at
the Paris Conservatoire
from the age of 11 and
got the First Prize at 13
years old. He composed
numerous pieces for Harp,
of all levels: '3 Very
Easy Little Pieces, Op.
7', 'Divertissement, Op.
29', 'Variation on the
Londonderry Air, Op. 20'
and 'Two Duets for 2
harps, Op. 26' among many
others..

Tangled is
Disney's popular animated
film from 2010, based on
the German fairy tale
Rapunzel. This book
includes two songs from
the movie, arranged for
lever or pedal harp by
Sylvia Woods: I See the
Light and Healing
Incantation. Both pieces
include lyrics,
fingerings, and lever or
pedal changes. I See the
Light is the love song
between Rapunzel and
Flynn, sung in the boat
during the lantern
ceremony. This 5-page
intermediate arrangement
is in the key of C with F
and G lever changes
throughout. The range is
31 strings, from the C 2
octaves below middle C up
to the E 2 octaves and 2
strings above middle C.
The one-page Healing
Incantation is the song
that Rapunzel sings when
her hair creates the
magic. It is in the key
of 1 sharp, with G and C
lever changes. It can be
played by advanced
beginners with experience
in making lever changes.
The range is 22 strings,
from the E almost 2
octaves below middle C,
up to the E 9 strings
above middle C. It can be
played on many 26-string
harps, if played an
octave higher than
written. Both pieces are
included in this sheet
music.

Consolation
- Like A Roselike Flower
(Consolazione - Flos Ut
Rosa) for Harp solo by
Per Norgard (2002).
Written for and dedicated
to Tine Rehling.
Programme note by the
composer: The concept of
Mary has a depth that
transcends all religious
persuasions. All over the
earth symbols of the
gentle and maternal are
known. But the word
'Maria' is also
associated - in sound -
with the Latin word for
the sea, mare, and she
thus become the Star of
the Sea, Maris
Stella. In my 3rd
Symphony the Maria motif
is used in a hymn section
in the second, and last,
part of the work. The
choral song “Flos
ut rosa floruit”
was composed directly in
the context of the
symphony, and themelody
had a 'stamina' that
carried it over into many
later vocal and choral
compositions, for
instance the
“Concerto for Harp
No. 2 - through
thorns” (2003) and
the present Consolazione
for harp solo , both
works dedicated to Tine
Rehling. .
