The Welsh Bard
Darhon Rees-Rohrbacher has created intermediate harp arrangements of twenty Welsh Airs based on the collected tunes of Nicholas Bennett. Some of the pieces require relatively easy lever changes. The pieces are written in the keys of B-flat, F, C, and G, in a progressive key order to facilitate lever and pedal changes. Chord symbols and some fingerings are included. If the 8va options are ignored, this entire book can be played on a harp of only 26 strings (3.5 octaves), with a range of low C to high G. Each piece is 2 pages long. 40 pages of music.
