Ray Pool has compiled 100 hymn tunes in fake book (also known as “lead sheet”) format for both lever and pedal harp players. You create your own harp arrangement using the melody and chords provided.
This methodical approach to lead sheet performance uses hymn tunes common to the current editions of Catholic, Episcopal, Presbyterian, Methodist, Congregational and Lutheran hymnals. The tunes are organized according to five different categories of music composition. The accompanying text gives a complete explanation of these categories with performance suggestions. This collection contains four indexes for easy reference according to: (1) Hymn tune; (2) First line of text; (3) Key signature; and, (4) musical category according to text instructions. 126 pages including text.
