CERULEAN is an original composition for solo pedal harp. One version was originally written for my students, and debuted publicly at Somerset Harp Festival in 2015 as a group harp piece with percussion. (If you would like a copy of the group version, please be in touch!).
There are two versions of CERULEAN (this one has a red subtitle).
This four-page version is for pedal harp and expounds on the Waltz version. It’s B section features a sound from another time and place and an opportunity for improvisation, is largely in A-flat minor and in 3/4 time, and has pedal slides and significant pedal changes.

The other version of CERULEAN is for lever and pedal harp - it features a waltz-like middle section and a more sparse sound. It is available here.
Enjoy!
