Alphonse Leduc Grand'mere Raconte Une Historie - Renie - Harp - Sheet Music

Composer: Henriette Renie
Format: Sheet Music
Instrumentation: Harp

French harpist and composer, Henriette Renie (1875-1956) lived in poverty for much of her life. However, this did not stop her from composing significant works for the harp, including Grandmother Tells a Story, an easy piece for beginners of the instrument. Despite being a talented composer, Renie lived at a time where fame and success was socially unacceptable for women. In 1940, Grandmother Tells a Story was published. As a easy piece, this Renie work is suitable for beginners of the instrument, including detailed performance directions and fingerings. For all beginner harpists, it is an exciting and varied addition to the repertoire.
