Note from the composer

The tunes are organized in the order of key signatures, starting with F and ending with D, except for “The Masquerade Waltz,” which is placed at the beginning of the book to accommodate the page turn. There are no lever changes. Two pieces have accidental levers set before playing the piece. I added some fingerings where I thought they would be helpful.

Reviews of Beneath the Pines

“All of your books are a joy. I am particularly loving your newest book Beneath the Pines. I always know when I’m playing tunes from an excellent harpist because they fall nicely under my fingers so well. Sharon, you certainly excel at this and make me feel like a better harpist. My favorite songs in your new book are “The Masquerade Waltz,” “Harmony Islands,” and “Back on my Feet,” but it is hard to limit the choices.”
-Harpist Beth A. Stockdell,

“Thank you so much. I love Buscando Ballenas!! It lets me create my own sound while using your music as a guide, coming back to your sound and then launching out again as I feel it. It’s just like I’m out searching for whales.This tune went straight to the top of my hit parade.”
-Jodie, Colorado

“I’m just now getting into this new book of yours – It’s your best one yet! You are an amazing song writer!!!”
-Jini O’Flynn

“I want to tell you how much I am enjoying “Beneath the Pines”. I love the melodies and the rhythms. And they are so “playable” for us amateurs! Thank you for bringing these tunes to life.”
