Just downloaded the PDF and started sight reading...I've played through almost the entire book- I couldn't stop as I was having soooo much fun!!! I have to give it a rest before I get a cramp! Great choices - classics of the period - wonderful arrangements that are perfect as is or could be expanded (chord symbols provided) by more advanced players. Excellent placement of lever changes to give authentic period harmonies. But most of all this is just FUN - great value and entertainment -recommended.

This is such a fun music book. There are easy and more advanced songs to play...each one bringing back sweet memories. The extra notes and suggestions are helpful and well placed. I also like the double versions that can be played as duets. Super music book!!!!!!

Whether you lived through this era or wish you had, this wonderful collection is just plain fun to play. It brought back memories and as I have played through this well-thought-out collection I always find that I am smiling. Sylvia's books always have that special personal touch for harpists of all levels whether lever or pedal. She includes everyone. The "Fun Facts" at the end of the book are charming. I wish I could rate with more than just Five Harps.

Love this book. I was pretty young in the 50s, but remember them all! I like to a little silly playing this music. Some challenges, but working on them! I can close my eyes and remember dancing to these songs, awesome.
