  • Wow, it looks like you don't have any lever changes- do you have the levers in a natural scale here? Or did you just flip the lever so fast that I missed it? I'd love to know becuase lever changes are my biggest weakness.

  • @thefortysecond Hi, Theres lever changes at 2mins10secs for the slidey notes effect, theres 2 at 2:33 and 2:36 for the accidental in 'greensleeves' and 2 very quick ones at 3:04 for the half-damped gliss 'chords'.

    However one of the top notes is re-tuned before the piece starts in order to get the tune right in the 1st bar.

  • This is great. I've been looking for alever harp arrangement for take five

    Could I buy a copy?

  • @amandahunter100

    Sorry I have never written it down, it's best to have a go at working out your own arrangement anyway!

  • Well done! That was amazing. What type of harp do you have? I have played this piece before but not on harp. Did you arrange this yourself? You are both really talented. Thank you.

  • @AnnieNancyharp thanks for that! Nice to be appreciated! The harp is a Salvi Egan and yes all arrangements are by us, I used to joke that after College, everyone only asked for 'Greensleeves' so put it in here for a laugh.

  • This is awesome! I want to try this with my lever harp!!

  • @phantombagpiper Thanks for the tips! Right now I'm only looking into playing this accompanying a flute, so the melodic lever changes aren't something I'm concerned about, but I didn't even notice the ones in the melody, you do them very smoothly. Maybe I'll try it with melody someday when I have a little more practice!

  • More Please!!!!! Wow, that was phenomenally brilliant!!!!...I also loved the strumming and harmonics on the harp, Dave Brubeck would be proud......Harp On! Gloria...

  • happy and beautiful spell binding music. brings me out of a sad state into a bouncing, content state
