The Road Home From Skye: Scottish and Irish Tunes for Celtic Harp
Discover over two dozen traditional tunes from Scotland and Ireland: a mix of novel and familiar jigs, reels, airs, marches, and strathspeys.
Intermediate through advanced harp players will enjoy these lovely melodies and their fresh, sparkling accompaniments. The arrangements include several optional transitions for combining tunes into sets, as heard on Claussen’s album The Road Home from Skye.
“I got a copy of your new book, and it is absolutely my favorite of any I’ve seen! I love the beauty and depth of your arrangements. The book couldn’t be better.” -Danae
Suitable for harps with a range of at least two octaves below middle C. Contains dynamics, chords, practical technical exercises, and fingering suggestions.
Light so Brilliant: Christmas Carols and Tunes for Solo Harp
Evoking an ancient rather than modern setting, Claussen’s renditions contain variations that intermediate through advanced harpists will find both intricate and satisfying. Suitable for pedal harps or lever harps with 33 strings or more. The arrangements contain dynamics, chords, and some fingering suggestions. Read more
“Your audience will love the familiar melodies, and you’ll love her creative arrangements that include clever medleys and interesting harmonies.”
-Kimberly Rowe, “Staff Holiday Picks 2018,” Harp Column Music
