Description
“Healing Harps Ensemble Book 1” is designed to accommodate harpists at beginner through intermediate levels of playing. Typically there is at least one harp part designed for the early beginner. The layout and parts are simple with minimal markings to accommodate individuals with physical and neurological limitations, and as such are also ideally suited to beginning harpists. There are also some selections and parts that are closer to an intermediate level, so these books accommodate a range of skill levels.
