Description
This book contains six well edited Rameau pieces (1683 – 1764). This music is for the student wanting a challenge, as this music is not easy. It requires good technique. Can be played on pedal harp or lever harp tuned in Eb. Pedal changes are noted between the staves, and lever changes are indicated by a small circled note. The notation is neatly done, with markings in solfeg. These older French publications show intuitive editing and lay very well under the fingers. The music contains techniques such as trills, muffles, pedal changes and much more. All pieces are to be played with an upbeat tempo and provide ample opportunity for all of your fingers to be utilized!
