Afghan Press Singing Wings - Cater - Harp

Colourful Solos for Lever or Pedal Harp

Composer: Kathryn Cater
Format: Book
Instrumentation: Easy Lever or Pedal Harp

Eight original compositions for the young harp student. These pieces will inspire a wide variety of playing styles and develop musical interpretation skills.

• Little Moth is very easy yet sounds quick and teaches harmonics.
• Moon Spinner has a moving left hand with parallel 6ths in right hand.
• Grasshopper's Jig teaches accents, is excellent for quick eye-hand coordination and scales, yet is not difficult.
• Monarch Wings sounds grand and glorious with full double triads.
• Bumble's Boogie uses enharmonics for a wonderful buzzing effect and teaches swing rhythm.
• Golden Swallowtail gives left hand a great opportunity to facilitate grabbing treble clef notes therefore assisting with the melody.
• Busy Bees is fast, easy and just great fun.
• Green Dragonfly incorporates PDLT, glissandos, accents, and left hand damping. It would be a wonderful recital piece.
