SKU: A0.889431

Composed by Turlough O'carolan. Arranged by Luis Anjos Teixeira. Baroque,Christmas,Concert,Standards. Score. 8 pages. Luis Anjos Teixeira #4731959. Published by Luis Anjos Teixeira (A0.889431).

Blind Mary was composed by O`Carolan, it is an irresistible enchanting little piece.

In this file there are 3 versions for 3 different sizes of harps.

One in F for a big harp, one in Eb for medium size and the one in F for a little 3 oct. lap harp a very similar one to the one that usually O`Carolan used to perform.

The melodic bass played with the left hand demands a little bit of coordination but the arrangement is focused in the main melody and is very easy to perform in all this 3 versions. The piece is so beautiful that I recommend it to be played always twice in a row. 

Some interpretation symbols are used as a performance suggestion.

Most of the score is left to the interpretation of the artists involved, particularly the use of fingering.

Feel Free to apply in this piece the Art and technic that expresses entirely your individual skills and taste.

Have fun!

The score was written on Finale.

The sound file is the version in Eb for a medium size diatonic harp, it was produced with samplers from Garritan and conceived merely as an audio support for the presentation of the score.

Thank you very much for taking your time to read this text and to listen to the file.

I hope you have a lot of fun and enjoy the music.

Slanja!

SKU: A0.1028778

Composed by Johann Pachelbel. Arranged by Colby A. Aguilar. Baroque. Score. 8 pages. Colby Aguilar #3929001. Published by Colby Aguilar (A0.1028778).

As promised, here is a version of Canon in D Major for the harp, in B minor. Originally by Johann Pachelbel, this version of his Canon has been transposed down a minor third, and displays a playing time of 9 minutes. The level of intensity isn't extremely difficult, save a few parts, and should be relatively easy to play for the rest of the time- timing and duration might be an issue. All other embellishments are up to the player and/or conductor, and dynamics are free to interpret as per usual.

 While all eight of these Celtic holidays may not be truly ancient, several of them certainly are; some, like Samhain, have had Christianizing veils cast over them but have kept many of the pre-Christian customs associated with their celebration. Interested harpists will find a wealth of available information about these holidays, their names, and their customs. 

Imbolc, February 1st or 2nd, is also the Feast of St. Bridget or Brigid and is associated with the ancient goddess of that name in Celtic mythology.

Ostara is the name sometimes given to the neo-Celtic celebration of the Spring Equinox. This piece depicts the dawn of the day and of the year.

Beltaine, the joyous celebration of spring’s warmth and wealth of flowers and new greenery, occurs on the first day of May. 

The longest day of the year and the shortest night mark the Summer Solstice-Midsummer. Since long before Shakespeare’s funny and lyrical play A Midsummer Night’s Dream, the Summer Solstice has been associated with magic.

Lughnasadh, on August 1st, is the festival of the first harvest. A version of the name of this festival survives in Manx and Scots Gaelic as well as in Irish Gaelic, and the name itself derives from Lugh, one of the most important Celtic gods

Mabon marks the Autumn Equinox and the end of summer; for me, it is a wistful moment of the year-extremely beautiful yet transitory.
Samhain is one of the most significant celebrations in the Celtic year- the word itself means the end of summer, the beginning of the dark part of the year. It survives even in non-Celtic countries as Halloween, thanks to its adoption into the Christian calendar as All Hallows’ Eve. It is said to be the  time when the veils between this world and the next are at their most thin.

The Winter Solstice is marked in many European cultures as a time for celebrating the birth of the new light and a time for decorating with evergreens like holly. For The Holly King, modal and traditional versions of the carol The Holly and the Ivy, were used because of the lyrics’ references to the rising of the sun, and the running of the deer.

SKU: S9.Q6154

Composed by Heinz Holliger. This edition: Sheet music. Downloadable. Duration 18' 30. Schott Music - Digital #Q6154. Published by Schott Music - Digital (S9.Q6154).

This piece combines the tradition in the harp repertoire of harking back to Baroque elements of form and style with selective use of sophisticated contemporary techniques. The most notable of these are the use of a bow to play the melody of the â?�Ariaâ?�, while the accompaniment is plucked in the usual way, and the extremely complex â?�Fughetta cromaticaâ?�, where the strings are retuned to make it possible to play unusual combinations of intervals.
