CARL FISCHER CLASSICS For The Lever Harp, Volume 1 Handel, Bochsa, Ravel, Tournier

Classics for the Lever Harp, Volume 1, expertly compiled and edited by Carl Swanson, brings together a beautifully curated selection of 10 intermediate-level works by master composers George Frideric Handel, Nicolas-Charles Bochsa, Marcel Tournier, and Maurice Ravel, all thoughtfully adapted for the lever harp. Designed for a 36-string harp tuned in Eb with full levers, this collection makes historically pedal-harp or keyboard repertoire accessible for lever harpists without sacrificing musical richness. Featuring highlights such as Handel’s Chaconne, Bochsa’s lyrical Nocturne, a suite of expressive miniatures by Tournier, and Ravel’s enchanting Pavane de la Belle au bois dormant, the volume spans Baroque through Impressionist styles while introducing players to a broader harmonic language rarely explored on lever harp. With practical fingerings, detailed lever change notation, and editorial insights, this edition serves as both a rewarding performance collection and a valuable pedagogical resource for advancing harpists seeking to expand technique, musicality, and repertoire.
