From the arranger:

“Apart from the Jasmin Song, ‘Little River’ is one of the most popular songs in China. It tells the universal story of two lovers separated by a river. The girl pleads to the moon to deliver her calls and yearning to her lover. The song is yet another wonderful example of the great beauty and expressiveness found in many folk songs. Text and music complement in fascinating perfection, equal to any operatic work.”

This is the intermediate version of Maerz’s Little River. It features glisses, full-hand (four-finger) arpeggios (rarely in sync with another part), bisbigliando, harmonics, and parallel intervals.

Harps 1 and 3 are for pedal harp only, but Harps 2 and 4 can be played on either pedal or lever harps. No pedaling is included in either the score or the parts, but occasional pedal charts appear with glissandos. An optional electric harp/bass part is available. Please note the purchase options below.

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.
