ROMANZA from EINE KLEINE NACHTMUSIK for LEVER harp
Eine Kleine Nachtmusik (Serenade No. 13 for strings in G major) is one of
Mozart’s most beloved works. Written in 1787, it was scored for string quartet. The
German title means “a little serenade,” though it is often translated more literally as
“a little night music.”
In this arrangement of the second movement (“Romanza,” meaning “Romance”), I
have omitted two sections that were too chromatic to work well on lever harp. What
is left is uniformly gracious, calm and romantic – lovely for concerts, for
background music or for wedding processionals.
Meticulously notated with fingerings and muffles. Lever changes are indicated by
diamond-shaped notes.
There are 3 pages of music, plus a page explaining all the notations.
For advanced lever harpers. There are 20 lever changes (not counting the repeats).
Full levers needed (there are Bb’s, F#s, C#’s and D#’s.)
For an easier version, you could play just the first section (the first page of music),
in which there are NO lever changes.
Range of harp needed: at least down to the G at the bottom of the bass clef.
