Published by Learning the Harp (A0.1050559).If you want to play a Christmas song that changes the atmosphere and shows off what the harp can do, this is the one! O Holy Night is a spectacular Christmas song that brings drama and a wow-factor, while proclaiming the truth about Jesus’ birth and that he came to bring hope. Christy-Lyn’s arrangement has beautiful downwards rippling arpeggios (similar to “The Little Fountain”), a dramatic glissando and a lot of dynamic variation.
Difficulty Level and Skills Required: Late-intermediate: The right hand is busy – it plays the melody in between playing downwards arpeggios and 4-note rolled chords, and also swaps down to join the left hand accompaniment. There are some quick lever changes including a spot where you change two levers at once. There is also a glissando that ends on a specific note.
Type of Harp: Lever harps or pedal harps; it is created with lever harps in mind, but pedal harps can just do the pedal changes at the first indication of a lever change of that note. This arrangement comes with a big harp version which requires at least 33 strings, and a small harp version which requires at least 26 strings.
Range: Big harp version: lowest note is C two octaves below middle C, highest note is C two octaves above middle C. Small harp version: lowest note is C an octave below middle C, highest note is G two and a half octaves above middle C.
Levers/Pedals: Big harp version: it is in the key of F major, with B flats in the key signature and with B and G lever changes. Small harp version: it is in the key of C major, with F and D lever changes.
What's Included: PDF download of 5 pages. Fingering and bracketing are included.
