Heather's Song

For Lever and Pedal Harp
 
In 2009, Frank wrote Abby's Song to honor the birth of the first grandchild in the family. The second grandchild is Heather, so here is her song. It is sweet and lyrical, very soothing and peaceful (like a lullaby). Play it as if you were singing it. It is in the key of D major (accessible on lever harps tuned in Eb and C) and there are only two simple lever changes. It contains a short section of arpeggios in triplets, one glissando, and 3-note chords (only one rolled 4-note chord in the right hand at the end). This is a great addition to every harpist's repertoire and suitable for all occasions.
