arranged for beginning and advanced harpists
Book
This book contains multi-level arrangements by Sylvia of 11 popular songs for Chanukah. Even if you’re not Jewish, if you play for parties during December you’ll find this book very helpful. Includes lyrics and fingerings. In the key of C or sharp keys; one song has lever changes. 26 pages, spiral-bound.
Companion CD or Cassette
The Companion CD and cassette include the pieces from this book and from Sylvia’s 50 Christmas Carols book. They will assist harp players learning the pieces in these books. Since many of you will want to “play along” as you are learning, Sylvia has recorded most of the pieces slower than they are usually played, and as “straight” as possible, with little or no expression or rhythmic variations. Most people find the CD easier to use than the cassette, because you can go directly to a specific track.
In the books each piece has two arrangements: (A) an easy version, and (B) one that is more difficult. On these recordings Sylvia plays the “B” versions. Since the two versions can be played as a duet, you can play either version along with the recording. The pieces are in the same order as in the books, with the Christmas pieces first, and then the Chanukah ones.
The prices of the “Book and CD” or “Book and Cassette” sets listed above are $2 off the price of the products if purchased separately.
