Expand your Christmas repertoire with these 25 lovely medieval and Renaissance carols arranged by Suzanne Guldimann. Lyrics in both English and the original languages are included, along with historical notes on the pieces.
Although Suzanne Guldimann has arranged these songs for lap harps, they are fun to play on any size harp. The range of the music is 2˝ octaves, from a C up to a G, and can be played on most lap harps, whether their range is C to C, or G to G. Arranged for advanced beginners to intermediate harp players. Chord symbols are included so that more advanced players, and players with larger harps, can add more notes to the arrangements. Fingerings are included. Suzanne, also a fine artist, created the cover artwork and illustrations. 48 pages, paperbound.
