This book of harp arrangements was written to provide you with beautiful, interesting and unusual harp music suitable for various settings.  I hope that these arrangements will inspire you to improvise, harmonize and take your music to the next level.

Features twenty-five lever harp arrangements of songs from many of our CD’s, including four harp duets and  flute parts for five songs. These exquisite arrangements are carefully created for Beginner to Intermediate harpers. Lever changes are few and easy to do. Many tunes have variation parts with suggested traditional ornamentation.

The Northern Folk Harp is produced on easy-to-read creamy-white stock with large notation, and is comb-bound between protective plastic sheets. Each piece is prefaced with information about the song, and page-turns are minimal.
