Nikriz Kasap Havasi for lever harp

Nikriz Kasap Havasi for lever harp

£11.95

Transcribed for advanced lever harp - Sirin Pancaroglu
Kasap havasi is a common traditional dance of the Marmara and Trakya regions of Turkey, as well as the Southern Balkans. They are often anonymous tunes in 2/4 or 4/4 meter, that is the nim sofyan or sofyan usuls. From a formal point of view, they achieve development through repeating melodies by expanding them, in this case an A(a+b+c). Because these are dance tunes, they rely on the rhythm. Here, combined with the agile melodies of the nikriz makam, we have a piece which is a lot of fun.

An Album of Pieces for the Irish Harp Op. 88

An Album of Pieces for the Irish Harp Op. 88

£17.50

Brian Boydell
"I warmly welcome this new publication of Brian Boydell’s lovely collection of solo pieces for lever harp, which will have been familiar to harpists in a copy of their original manuscript form. This printed edition now makes them more accessible to players who may not have performed lever harp repertoire beyond the confines of major and minor keys. The lyricism throughout these works speaks for itself, with easy conversation between registral voices propelling the music through varying shades of modality, hovering just on the edge of tonality. From the miniature portraits of Triptychs I, II, and III, and the darkly atmospheric Lament for a Legendary Queen, to the harmonically colourful Pastoral Song, and the quirky Eccentric, each piece conveys its own distinctive character. This collection is a delightful and approachable way to introduce lever harpists to a more expanded musical idiom."
