12 String HARP & LYRE CHRISTMAS Collection: Harmonies Maximized for 12 strings tuned to key of C

By Susan Call Hutchison

Pull the Richest Sound from the Smallest Harp or Lyre

Are you fascinated by the sound of the harp and lyre? Have you wondered how to play rich harmonies from an instrument with only twelve notes ranging an octave and a half?

Inspired by the world's great folk carols, here are 25 unique arrangements of Christmas songs, maximized for twelve unlevered strings tuned from F to C above middle C.

It's like opening a music box of charming carols from England, Wales, France, Poland, Germany, Spain, Italy, Slovakia and America.

Both right and left hand are written in treble clef, and all melodies and harmonies can be played on any harp or lyre with at least 12 strings, tuned from F to C in the key of C.

You'll find a satisfying range of melodies and harmonies for the beginner to the advancing beginner. And, because I've included chord notations above the right-hand staff, as you advance to any size harp, you will still be able to play these wonderful carols.

These arrangements are simple, but not childish. You'll find them satisfying to learn and practice. You'll be proud to share them with family and friends. And, yes, there are lyrics, for the full Christmas Caroling experience.
