This book of Christmas carols by Marilyn Marzuki is thoughtfully arranged for both lever and pedal players. It begins with simple textures for beginners, and progresses through more complex harmonies and modulations. These arrangements have a more “classical” feel than our other Christmas books for lever harp, and include many techniques commonly found in pedal harp music. A useful glossary explains these special notations. Keys range from 2 flats to 2 sharps. Fingerings, brackets, and lever and pedal markings are included. Each carol has a brief explanation and description.
