Three poems by William Butler Yeats, set to music and arranged for harp and voice. Each song/poem is a separate piece of sheet music, and they are also available individually for $3.25 each in our eBay store. The songs are:
- Down by the Salley Gardens, set by Yeats himself to the traditional melody "The Maids of Mourne Shore."
- Into the Twilight, set by Shirley Starke to music in the Aeolian mode (minor scale).
- The Pity of Love, set by Shirley Starke to a melody in the Mixolydian mode (the 7th note of the scale is dropped a half step) which has the feel of traditional Irish music.
Each of the three pieces is 4 pages long, 8½” x 11". The music is printed in black on ivory paper and includes words, melody, chord symbols, and arrangement for the harp. It was written for the lever harp but may be played on the pedal harp as well. Level: easy to intermediate. Click to see them individually.
See our other auctions and eBay store for more harp books and sheet music: Valkyrie Publications carries four music books, one instruction book, and over 75 pieces of sheet music for the lever or pedal harp. You can also find the books on half.com, or follow the "Me" link to our website, where some of our music can be heard.
If you are dissatisfied with your music for any reason, we will send you a free replacement in PDF form. You need not return the original music. Just click "Contact seller" and "Send the seller a message" and let us know! We will send it to your PayPal address since the Ebay message system will send only photos.
Please add $1.90 postage for your order of any size from Valkyrie Publications: if the actual postage is more, we will pay the difference! Your order will be sent USPS First Class or Media Mail, depending on its weight.
Happy bidding and harping!!
