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 advanced version of Maerz’s Little River. It features glisses, many arpeggios (often in ‘two-against three’ with another part), bisbigliando, fingernail effects, harmonics and highly colorful chords. The last renditions of the melody are set to jazz synocopations, in contrast to the more typical harmonies and rhythms of the first several verses.
No pedaling is included in either the score or the parts, but occasional pedal charts appear with glissandos. Please note the purchase options below. PEDAL HARP, ADVANCED.
