Product Details


Product Description

An intermediate/advanced level work for folk (or pedal) harp, flute, and cello.  The harp part contains no lever/pedal changes and there are no extended techniques, but there are high and fast passages for the flute and cello.  Harp range is 4-1/2 octaves (D2 below bass cleff to G6 an octave above treble).  The cello part could be played on a 7-string or down-tuned guitar.

Inspired by the first chapter of Kenneth Graham's "Wind in the Willows," the opening represents a lazy row down the river, over harp arpeggios inspired by early 70s folky progressive rock.  The music livens up and harp arpeggios illustrate the boat tipping over as Rat and Mole sink down into the water and float back up.  An exciting section starting at 3:45 represents getting caught in the rapids, with wild runs in flute and cello over driving harp figures.
