10 Pieces Facile Pour la Harpe Celtique

EASY, ALL HARPS. Ten easy pieces for the Celtic harp.

We are happy to offer music from as many parts of the world as we are able. Much music comes from France. In our library, we have one collection by Michel Capelier. It is always interesting to know about the composers, but Capelier had evaded me. I mentioned this as part of the description for his book, 10 Pieces Faciele Pour la Harpe. Nancy Cochran, noting this, did a little research and found a picture of him. I am sad to say that he passed away in February of 2021. I have not located the obit. Nancy found a very short bio in French, which we roughly translated from Wiki France. Please scroll for details. We also made a blog post about him here: https://folkharp.com/michel-capelier/

Description

We are happy to offer music from as many parts of the world as we are able. Much music comes from France. In our library, we have one collection by Michel Capelier. It is always interesting to know about the composers, but Capelier had evaded me. I mentioned this as part of the description for his book, 10 Pieces Faciele Pour la Harpe. Nancy Cochran, noting this, did a little research and found a picture of him. I am sad to say that he passed away in February of 2021. I have not located the obit. Nancy found a very short bio in French, which is roughly translated from Wiki France:

Michel Capelier, born May 5, 1945 in Laon and died February 23, 2021 in Paris, is a pianist, university professor, conductor and composer. He was director of a conservatory in a district of Paris. From 1973 to the end in 1986, [ I think there is reference to his creating educational conferences]. He took over for Robert Blot (conductor of Paris Opera and Symphonies) when Blot passed away. His work Goutte de forêt, on a libretto by Fabrice Pinte, was written in 1984. He has been a bandoneonist for the Amapola Quartet ensemble as well as for the Armenonville with which he has
recorded a Tour du Monde in (https://www.larmenonville.fr/) tangos for which he wrote the arrangements. If you go to the larmenonville site, there are more pictures of Capelier and more information. It’s in French, but if you use a translating website, you will see more info. We hope this short paragraph honors him.

If you have never seen someone play the bandoneon, it is a large concertina that can extend to 5 feet.

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.
