This is my slightly more complex arrangement of Leaves from the Vine from the beloved animated series Avatar: the Last Airbender, as well as the more recent Netflix live-action adaptation by the same name. It is appropriate for intermediate harpists working with an instrument as small as 26 strings, ranging from the C below middle C to the third G above Middle C (though it can obviously also be played on a larger harp, as well). It is written in the key of B-flat Major with no accidentals or lever changes. As such, it could work on an instrument model without levers, so long as the instrument is tuned with Bs and Es flat. My own instrument is a Harpsicle Fullsicle Harp. But I believe it could also work, with one or two very minor modifications, on a Harp-E, some of the Roosebeck Pakistani harp models (though check your range to be sure), Dusty Strings Ravenna 26, or Musicmakers Sonnet 29.

The intro, outro, and transitions of the song weave in a medley of other themes from Avatar: The Last Airbender, including excerpts from The Avatar's Love, Four Seasons, and the main title theme. The core of the arrangement, however, centers around on variations of Leaves from the Vine.

I also have a simplified, beginner-appropriate arrangement of this piece published seperately. That simplified version is NOT included in the purchase of this document and will need to be purchased from its own link.

This is an original composition for small or beginner harp. I wrote it on a 26-string lap harp, but the range (from the C below middle C to the C above middle C) would fit a harp as small as 22 strings. It is written in A minor, with no sharps, flats, or other lever changes. As such, this piece should be playable on pretty much any standard small or lap harp, regardless of whether it has levers.

Suggested harp models include Harpsicle Harps, Dusty Strings Ravenna 26, Musicmakers Sonnet 29, Fireside Harps, Marini Made lap harp models, Roosebeck Pakistani harps, Heartland Harps Air Serenity, Harp-E harps, and so on.

The piece was composed to cheer up a fellow harpist who is still at the beginning of their harp journey. It is meant to invoke a medieval castle, and, as such, could be the perfect piece to take to a renaissance fair, an outdoor wedding, a larp-ing event, or perhaps on vacation with you, if you plan on touring any old castles with your small/lap harp in tow and trying out the acoustics.

The song is appropriate for beginner harpists. You may need to practice replacing in a few places to avoid buzzing. But the piece only ever requires you to place in one direction at a time and minimizes the amount of time both hands play simultaneously. You can play it slower than I do in the recording, if you choose, and it should still sound nice.

It's a perfect opportunity to challenge yourself and add one of the most well-known classical pieces to your repertoire! It creates such a graceful, contemplative atmosphere, perfect for performing in churches, weddings, or simply for your enjoyment. The fingering and lever changes have been carefully chosen and timed to make the piece as comfortable as possible to play. However, you'll find that the right hand is quite taxing and requires concentration to play accurately while staying relaxed!

Difficulty Level and Skills Required: Late-intermediate. The right hand plays the melody with a series of long overlapping brackets, scales, and rolled chords. The left hand is less busy, playing many octaves, 10th interval rolled chords, and lever changes.

Type of Harp: The big harp version is for 33 strings and larger, but the small harp version works for 26 strings and larger.

Range: For big harps: The lowest note is C, two octaves below middle C. The highest note is A, one and a half octaves above middle C. For small harps: The lowest note is C. below middle C. The highest note is G, two and a half octaves above middle C.

Levers/Pedals: In the key of G major (F levers set to F sharp). Several F, B, G, and C lever changes throughout. If your harp is tuned in C major, you'll need to tune the B above middle C to B flat for the lever change. Start the piece with the lever set to B natural.

This is a simplified harp arrangement suitable for small harps of 15 strings or more.  Both hands are written in the treble clef.  Range is from Middle C up to Treble High A.  Can easily be adapted to fit harps of various sizes and strings.  There are no lever changes. This piece has a simple one note right hand melody, and an easy one or two notes per measure for the left hand.  Very playable for a beginning harpist, but chords could be added instead of single LH notes if a slightly more advanced arrangment is desired.  This lovely, gentle piece would be beautiful for background music, or for a church offertory or meditative music.  

This piece can be played on any harp such as a Harpsicle, Aklot harp, Fireside harp, Waring harp, Roosebeck Harp, Lyon and Healy, Camac, Salvi, Venus, and any Celtic harp.
