Description

From the arranger:

“This beautiful tune is a traditional song from the Hebrides. It was notated in the early twentieth century by the musicologist and pianist Marjory Kennedy-Fraser, who collected and preserved many traditional songs from this region.”

The easy version (3 pages) of this piece features some arpeggiated bass accompaniment (stretches no bigger than 1 octave) and a single-note RH melody with extensive fingerings. The intermediate version (5.5 pages) has running eighth notes and many more LH arpeggios, some of which are extended with crossovers. It also has an extra (1/2 page) optional free introduction.

Please note that though the video below is for the duet version, the melody and some accompaniment figures are the same.

mp3 DOWNLOADS

On our website, folkharp.com, we offer a wide selection of paper and download music. We were always in a quandary about publications having several parts, or that include sound files. After realizing that we can place multiple files into one folder and “zip” it up, we are now able to offer book + cd options.

What we do: sound files and the PDF book are placed into a folder and zipped. The zipped folder is inserted into the product on the back end of the web site.

What you receive: after you purchase, you receive a zipped folder. This is a folder that literally has a picture of a zipper on it, indicating there is more than one document in the folder.

What you do with it: Generally by double clicking on the folder, it automatically opens up. The challenge lies in whether or not you have a program that unzips these folders. If you do, it is as simple as double clicking and the contents are revealed. Alternately, you can right click on the folder, which brings up choices, one of which is “open with” – you then click on your unzip program.

If you don’t have a program to unzip your files you’ll have a challenge! Recently I bought a small laptop for my zoom lessons. This laptop did not come with winzip, or any other kind of program that unzips these folders. The computer kept wanting me to purchase winzip for $29. I found another program that does a great job, and it is free. 7-zip unzips all my compressed (zipped) folders! It is open source and you can find out more here:https://www.7-zip.org/

We hope all this information is helpful to you.
