    I have just been given first Harp playing Rachmaninov’s ‘The Bells’ in the Royal Festival Hall at the end of Feb, with the Bach Choir and Chetham’s Symphony Orchestra (so it’s quite a big deal for me). I wont be given the music until the end of next week (Harpists always get their music last!). Does anyone know if their is a lot to play, as I think I may have mild tendinitis. It doesn’t hurt when I play, only when I gently stretch my finger tips back when I warm up, so I know it isn’t severe.

    I don’t know the harp part for this piece but if it helps – here is a link to a copy of the full score:
