Ce est un morceau que je ai écrit pour Taisho Koto
(dulcimer japonais). Je vous présente un
accompagnement de guitare simple et un système
électronique
Absolutely love this piece! Thank you for so much for sharing your beautiful songs. I would like to play this solo on lever harp and/or pedal harp. Have you per chance created a harp arrangement?
↪ Hi There, I am so glad you like the piece and feel free to do anything you like with it (or anything of mine). Sorry that I do not really know anything about arranging specifically for harp. I would have thought that you just play the chords with your left hand and then play the melody with your right, although I don't think you could play the second melody at the same time. Good Luck and Best Wishes, Toby
↪ Hi Toby, Thank you! I have been experimenting in various ways so far: sometimes just playing the chords with my left hand while playing the primary melody with my right, as you suggested; and at other times including as much of the accompanying melody as possible with whichever hand is most appropriate for a given note. I am enjoying the learning process of this project! May I ask which software you use or recommend for arranging? I am still learning how to be quick and efficient on that front, but I would like to create an arrangement for the harp. Thanks for your input and for sharing your beautiful music!
↪ Hi again. I compose the pieces using a midi keyboard connected to Cubasis VST 5 software. I do also have Cubase Elements 9 but I find that the sheet-music functionality is better on the older cheaper program. If you get Cubase you can just read in the midi file which I provide and see all the notes up on the screen. You could also merge parts and take out the unplayable notes. If I was a better guitarist I would attempt to create solo guitar versions of my pieces. I am hoping someone might come along and offer to do that sometime. But I am happy that elementary students can play the pieces as an ensemble too. Good Luck! Toby
