François Joseph Naderman: Sonatas, Etudes, Rondos - Part 2: 4 advanced Etudes - arranged for lever harp

PART 2 CONTENTS: Etude 5 in F major - Etude 6 in F major - Etude 7 in G major - Etude 8 Fantastique in F major DESCRIPTION: François Joseph Naderman (1781-1835) was a classic harpist, composer and teacher of the period after the French revolution. Very famous in his time, he became the first harp professor at the Conservatoire de Paris, starting the glorious French school of harp. His works are regarded as some of the most important pieces in the harp repertoire today. Especially the Seven progressive sonatas op. 92 are frequently studied, played and recorded. For their usefulness and didactic effectiveness, and for their high artistic quality, I selected some works by Naderman and I arranged them for the lever harp. As my intent is eminently practical and not at all historical or philological, I took some liberty in rearranging the pieces, changing some harmonic progression and adding some passages and cadences to simplify the lever changes. The complete collection includes five volumes: Part 1: 4 intermediate Etudes from L'école de la harpe op. 91 Part 2: 4 advanced Etudes from L'école de la harpe op. 91 Part 3: 3 Sonatas op. 19 Part 4: 3 Sonatas from 7 sonates progressives op. 92 Part 5: 3 Rondos from 7 sonates progressives op. 92
