AZURE was originally written for an adult student whose small lap harp had a limited range / number of strings. Finding enjoyable music for this size instrument was challenging, so I wrote a piece specifically for my student, who is a writer and philosopher with a deep soul, has a keen interest in sound and color, and is a music teacher herself. This piece memorializes our relationship and time together.

It is for solo lever or pedal harp, in the key of C, in 3/4 time.
It is one page, and there are no lever or pedal changes.
Lowest note is G below middle C, highest is G in second octave above middle C.

AZURE is a composition that provides an opportunity for a performer or teacher + student to explore:

* chord symbols
* rolled chords
* inversions of chords / triads
* extensions (7ths, 9ths)
* chord clusters
* musical form and repeats
* hand shapes
* falling bass lines
* arpeggios (walking)
* improvisation

Learn more about AZURE and watch/listen on YouTube, and listen to no-talk no-interruption sound-only recordings of AZURE - as is or including improvisation - on SoundCloud, below.
