These products are PDF downloads of the printed music book Songs of the Harp by Sylvia Woods. The book itself is out of print, and this music is ONLY available in downloadable PDF format.
The music includes 20 songs all about harps and harpers. Most of the songs are from Wales and Ireland. The harp arrangements include the melody, and therefore can be played with or without a vocalist. The pieces are In the key of C or sharp keys with full fingerings. Sylvia has added duet parts for several of the songs, and a Welsh variation to Let Now The Harp. This music is for advanced beginner to intermediate harp players.
