Clarsach Confidence Book 1: Elementary by Elinor Evans

Standard: Elementary           Standard: Lever Harp

The aim of this book is to build confidence when playing both hands together. The right hand (playing the tune) gets progressively harder while the left hand is kept straight forward using triads or straightforward chords. This allows the student to develop their right hand while being comfortable with their left. At the end of the book there are two duets but harp 1 can be played as a solo.

All the pieces in the book are traditional (apart from the duets) from around the British Isles and are arranged by myself.
