Hmmmm. I think it has a great deal to do with harps, especially playing them. I often run across note patterns that need the player to seemingly do two opposing things at the same time- inversions of seven chords in contrary motion for example.
I looked up NY State, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, Pennsylvania had what looked like a graded list, and didn’t say exactly what the graded solos were for.
Virginia and NY State required membership in the specific organization in order to access the info. I guess you’d have to do a state by state search. Maybe if other people read your request, they’ll post the audition materials from their states.
Have you or the students checked with your state music educator’s group? In my state, a list of solos and basic requirements
Mel, I’m so glad to hear your positive comments about the Pozzoli Etudes. Even some of the ones from the first collection (published in the Grossi book) are really lovely to play.
My teacher hasn’t mentioned the second book, but I bought it when I started to really get into the first set, so maybe she’ll let me start some of those instead of the Bochsa that I can’t seem to find.
If it’s at all helpful I study with a student of Jamet who started me in Grossi/Pozzoli (in the same volume). I’m almost finished going through the G/P for the first time, and we will be beginning the Bochsa “Fifty Progressive Lessons?” as soon as I can find the correct book.
Is that the title of the first volume of Boscha Carl? The first book I purchased was incorrect, and I have been asked to get the first 25 etudes, but I’m still not sure I have the right title.

Sight reading is the hardest part of music to learn and also the hardest to teach. See if you can find someone who uses the Kodaly method.
Even though it’s designed for children, a teacher trained in the method
Received this book yesterday, and it’s just what I was looking for! I bought a used 3rd edition on amazon.com for $15. Great purchase!
Thank you Elizabeth. I have sent for a copy of this book, and it looks as though it is exactly what I want.
I have a lot of trouble with lever flipping too, I think part of my problem is that I don’t see the lever colors clearly enough to locate them quickly and smoothly. I have seen lever covers in pictures that cover the entire lever, but I don’t know if they’re currently available or not.
I think they were for Camac levers, or possibly Performance levers. The rings are not too helpful for me on my newish Camac levers with the bands of color at the top of the little handles.
