“Making Your Own Harp Arrangement”

an invited video presentation for the American Harp Society,  Bay Area Chapter 

​

Three questions that I ask myself when arranging music for the harp:

 

1. The composer is looking at a blank manuscript page. What is that composer’s intent? What is the musical work being created: i.e., dance, song, classical style, etc.?​

​

2. How do I remain faithful to the original musical intent of the composer and still highlight the radiance of the harp?

​

3. What ideas do I bring to this music that enhance the original work through the harp?
