The Garland of Love
This charming piece is from a period source, unpublished in modern times, and the present edition includes two transcriptions, one for pedal harp in the key of Eb (as it appeared originally) and another for Celtic harp. The latter has been transposed a semitone down into D in order to fit within the usual range of the smaller instrument (no notes have been omitted). In fact the lower key sounds closer to authentic late 18th-century pitch than modern Eb does, as concert “A” has risen considerably in the intervening centuries.
