For lever or pedal harp. Student pieces from level 1 to level 3.
This collection has some very easy pieces. The most difficult, Baron’s Blues, is a jazzy piece that is actually easier on lever harp than on the pedal harp, because all the accidentals use lever pre-sets! This is also true of Walkin’ Wally.
Danny Solves the Mystery sounds much more difficult than it is. Hands cross, but do not play at the same time.
Lullaby for Smokey gently puts the hands together in easy patterns.
Walkin’ Wally is more challenging, but my students enjoyed it so much they practiced! 60’s rock vamp and walking bass makes it fun.
Grumpy Dreams of Flying was composed for a student who wanted something mysterious sounding. Dreamy glissandi throughout most of this piece create the effect.
Chasing Buddy is fast and cute, just like the Jack Russel Terrier it’s named after.
Baron’s Blues is supposed to sound like a whiny puppy who just wants someone to play with him. Not too fast!
Forest Friends has a new age feel with the additional benefit of being an etude for interval practice.
Buckwheat’s Baby is a study on I, IV and V7 chords.
