The Mountain Lark<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Gr\u00e1inne Hambly<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

This is the tune to play if you want to excite or engage your audience! It has such an infectious melody.<\/span><\/p>\n

Irish Whiskey<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Monika Stadler<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Such a fun, lively tune\u2014great for your gig book, Monika has a lever version and a pedal version, as well as optional add-on Harp 2 parts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Kitten<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Kim Robertson<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I had never heard this tune before, but it\u2019s so adorably playful. This is a 5-part slip jig and the arrangement is quite long for a tune, which is great for long sets at your gigs.<\/span><\/p>\n

Brian Boru\u2019s March<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Fabio Rizza<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

This tune is so nostalgic because it was a staple in my harp ensemble as a kid. I was so glad to stumble upon this gorgeous, sophisticated version with a unique harmonic color.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Parting Glass<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Liana Alpino<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

I have always loved this gentle Irish tune. I like to end my sets with this one not only because it\u2019s a nice soothing note to end on, but also because it is traditionally sung as a goodbye song as a way to end gatherings with friends.<\/span><\/p>\n

Inisheer<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Angela<\/span><\/i> Kl<\/span><\/i>\u00f6<\/span><\/i>hn<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

This is one of my Irish favorites. It has a captivating melody filled with beautiful phrases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Be Thou My Vision<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

arr. Rhett Barnwell<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Perhaps one of the best known Irish melodies\u2014this is a must for your gig book if you don\u2019t have it already. Rhett\u2019s version is quite unique compared to other versions out there, as it is very evocative in nature.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Harpweaver<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

Maeve Gilchrist<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Eight original arrangements and transcriptions make up this collection from Maeve\u2019s album of the same name. No wonder the album has received such high praises because these pieces are beautiful. My personal favorite is \u201cThe Storm.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Exploding Bow<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

Ailie Robertson<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Such a groovy, rhythmic medley of three Scottish\/Irish jigs. This is definitely \u201cshow stopper solo\u201d worthy. This piece is also a part of Ailie\u2019s larger collection, First Things First. <\/span><\/p>\n

Dreams of Ireland<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n

William Mahan<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

This collection is great to add to your Irish\/St. Patrick\u2019s Day playlists. It includes 8 original tunes inspired by Irish immigration to America, as well as an arrangement of the ever popular \u201cDanny Boy.\u201d It\u2019s always nice to add some music that people don\u2019t expect or recognize to your setlists, but still have Irish flavor.<\/span><\/p>\n
