Solace
Solace is a lovely piece to be played slowly and with expression. It is based on repeating left hand patterns of 1-5-9 and 1-5-8 that can be heard in the opening measures. It is early intermediate level and features a sparse melodic right hand melody at first which grows as the piece develops.
Two arrangements are available:
- Lever or Pedal harp (it works best for a 34+ string harp)
- Double-Strung harp (the lowest note is the A-flat below middle C so it works for lap harps or larger harps)
Both arrangements include suggested fingering!
This calm, tranquil music is great for meditative settings, hospitals, houses of worship or anywhere with a quiet, reflective atmosphere. Plus it gives you the opportunity to practice phrasing, rubato and dynamics.
