My Music

As a personal challenge, I've started recording one piece a month that my harp teacher/coach/guide and I have been working on. As some of you know, I acquired a pedal harp recently, which has really changed things up a bit! Playing chromatic music is more available to me now. But I'm still fond of the lever harp, so some of the pieces below are played on pedal, and lever.

There are many facets to learning a piece - time signatures change change with in the piece, the key center can shift back and forth, and, of course, the dynamics of a piece.

Part of my learning is to create accompanying video and better audio. What is below is what I have now. The quality will get better over time.

  1. Rouet - Trois Petite Pieces Faciles, Alphonse Hasselmans, 1814-1902
  2. Dragonfly in the Sunshine, Carl Reinecke, 1824-1910
  3. The Maid of Mourne Shore (traditional Irish) and Anam Cara, Christina Tourin medley
  4. Over the Rainbow, Harold Arlen (music), Yip Harburg (lyrics)
  5. la fille aux cheveux de lin, Claude Debussy, 1862-1918
  6. Grand'mere raconte un histoire (Grandmother tells a story), Henriette Renie, 1875-1956
