This publication fills a significant void in the harp world. Many have realized the musical (foremost) and visual (bonus) benefits to including the harp to dramatically enhance choral music. Jacqueline Pollauf has thought of and included all details including fascinating program notes, notations and annotations. She also thought to strategically place blank pages in a few spots to allow for ideal page turns when new pieces begin. These details are things that only a well-seasoned professional harpist would think to offer. The notes are crisp and clear, the pedal charts are judiciously offered (and appreciated), the dynamics and pedal changes are also clearly marked. I can only imagine the labor of love and legacy that went into this much needed contribution to the harp world.

This is a wonderful compilation of important music needed by all harpists. I am grateful that Ms. Pollauf took the time to make these parts easily playable and accessible to all of us.

Jacqueline Pollauf has created an essential resource that gives choral repertoire the spotlight it deserves. While harp education often leans heavily toward orchestral excerpts, there is also very rewarding professional work performing with choirs. This publication bridges that gap perfectly.
The notation is very clear, and the layout shows a deep understanding of the practicalities a professional harpist faces in these settings. It’s a thoughtful, much-needed contribution to the harp community that I’m excited to have in my library.

Choral Repertoire: Harp Parts by Jacqueline Pollauf fills a long-standing gap in the harp repertoire. While we have many collections of edited orchestral harp parts, thoughtfully prepared choral parts have been much harder to find. This volume is beautifully engraved and carefully edited, with clear fingerings, practical enharmonic spellings, and useful pedal markings throughout.
Having frequently performed from heavily marked-up scans of scans, I’m genuinely excited to see a resource like this available and look forward to using it for future performaces!

This publication is an incredible resource for harpists, both students and professionals. Choral works with harp typically receive less focus in university programs, and so it can be daunting to learn these parts, so riddled with long-standing publishing errors, once you’re graduated. Jacqueline has taken tremendous care in creating clean, easy to read parts in this compilation, complete with background information, excellent cues, and helpful context on comparative editions. The added bonus of her transcription of Soleils de September by Lili Boulanger sparks curiosity and helps correct the imbalanced gender representation in the classical music canon.

Rarely does one receive a harp part so completely marked as the pieces in Jacqueline Pollauf’s book. Her attention to thoughtful page turns, precise common-sense pedal markings, choral and orchestral cues, and more make this a breeze to read. Many of the works were written or published multiple times in different configurations. Ms. Pollauf has carefully researched every configuration and shares her insights in the introductions to each piece. Especially notable is her transcription of Lili Boulanger’s Soleils de Septembre, adding another quality piece to the repertoire for harp and chorus. This book is very valuable for the advanced and professional harpist.
