Omar and Sharmin's Treasure £3

A lullaby written for the manager of the Palm Court in the Balmoral Hotel in Edinburgh when he and his wife were expecting their first child. All of the harpists recorded a video of a lullaby and we put them together as a present for the new parents. It's a gentle piece, and you could of course simplify the left hand if you like.

Key of C 6/8 no lever changes, intermediate level.

The left hand uses 4ths, 5ths, individual notes, running chordal patterns (semiquavers/16th notes), rolled chords, downward broken chords, harmonic.

Other techniques include grace notes.

You can see a sample of the score, and hear the full tune in the video in the image gallery to the left, or on my YouTube channel here.

Length: 2 pages of music

Duration: c.1:36 or 3:12 if repeated.
