    This elementary level harp arrangement is in the key of C Major and requires no lever changes. This arrangement is for larger harps, however with some simple modifications it can be played on a small harp with bass C as the lowest pitch. Crafted to fit the hands beautifully while creating an expressive lilt, this is a lovely arrangement for early level players.

    Ooooh Anne, regardless whether beginning arrangement or not! I’m getting this! By the way!!! I had soo many compliments on the harp music at my grandsons wedding! I played Your - “Believe “ her walking with her Dad to my grandson and Pastor. Played Watermark before wedding started. Wedding was pulled indoors as a downpour and we were on the top of a ski resort above the ski lifts lol soo not all music was utilized but every piece I played of yours was outstanding 🦋🌷🦋 I also played a a small compilation of your songs I just know by heart. Honestly, you are my go for any music. I play all the hymn arrangements and have played them for about 80 pastors convention. You are blessed and highly favored dear one! I’m now off to purchase this arrangement🦋😘🦋. Thank you, forever in your debt- Paula

    And if you like to sing along, here are the lyrics. See what I did at "my huckleberry friend"?
    Moon River, wider than a mile
    I'm crossin' you in style some day
    Old dream maker, you heartbreaker
    Wherever you're goin', I'm goin' your way
    Two drifters, off to see the world
    There's such a lot of world to see
    We're after the same rainbow's end
    Waitin' 'round the bend
    My huckleberry friend, Moon River and me

    A few ladies that enjoyed my music there have passed on this year and I sure do miss them!!! I have been blessed to have met them and their encouraging comments in my harp journey will always be with me.
    I played Moon River a year ago in my very first recital at age 68! I was so nervous but it went well!!!😅

    Thank you Anne. I just ordered this beautiful arrangement. I listened with my twins several times, whilst they were pretending to sleep, just as my husband got home! A lovely opportunity to relax after an exciting evening 🙏🎶💕

    That was beautiful. I finished night shift this morning and take ages to unwind after a shift. I listened to your beautiful arrangement of Moon River and feel totally relaxed, I'm going to listen to it again before I go to bed and fall into the most relaxing sleep 😊. Thank you very much Anne ❤xx

    So beautiful, Anne. When you mentioned Moon River today I thought to myself, I’ll have to look for that! I didn’t realize it’s a new arrangement. It sounds amazing. I’ll enjoy playing this one. 💕🎶

    Just lovely. And without those accidentals that require lever changes. Very cool! 🥰

      Yes! I was able to hint at the harmonies without needing to do pesky lever changes.

    Anne, this is so beautiful. I had a struggle making my own, with a lever change, and played it for a short while, but was dissatisfied though people seemed to like it, but yours flows and shines just like its namesake. ❤❤

    Such a beautiful arrangement Anne, I'd love to try this , will it be OK for my 22 string harp with base C?
    Thank you for sharing your lovely music with us. It's so appreciated in such a darkened world, but there are bright and beautiful things too, like this song.
    Blessings June x

      You'll have to do a few creative tweaks, but it's really not difficult to adapt this one to a small harp.

    So beautiful! I've noticed, however, that your bass strings ring on so long (at least through the pickup) that they can end up clashing with the subsequent notes if not muffled, like your low-B. Is that probably more audible in the recording than in-person?

    • @annecrosbygaudetmusic
      @annecrosbygaudetmusic  2 месяца назад +1

      Yes, the lowest piezo on the pickup really highlights those low notes, they ring forever!
