Lever Harp - Level 4 - Digital Download
SKU: A0.1483447
By The Beach Boys. By Fred Fassert. Arranged by Rachael Acheson. 20th Century,Contemporary,Pop,Rock. Score. 5 pages. TheHarpLibrarian #1060608. Published by TheHarpLibrarian (A0.1483447).This fun, summertime arrangement of 1960s classic "Barbara Ann" is the song you never knew you needed to hear, or play, on harp, but that, once you know it exists, your fingers will itch to try.
It is playable on a lever harp as small as 26 strings, and so should work on a Harp-E, Dusty Strings Ravenna 26, any of the Marini-Made lap harp line, Musicmakers Sonnet 29, or a number of Roosebeck Pakistani models, as well as on a Harpsicle Fullsicle, like the model I am playing in the video.
It is a slightly more advanced piece, both because of the percussive elements and because the genre requires that you frequently stop each chord's ringing soon after you play it, so the sound doesn't muddy. It also makes use of the full 3.5 octave range it is written for. That said, because I did the enharmonic math for you beforehand, so that, once you set the levers indicated, you will be able to play, not only the entirety of "Barbara Ann," but also the small excerpts of "Wipe Out" and "Fun, Fun, Fun" spliced into the middle of the medley ALL without changing a single lever mid-piece.
I hope you enjoy it! Summer vibes, here we come.
