Screwdriver Dances for 2 or 3 harps

Each of these dances incorporates a different sound effect on the harp, produced with the help of a screwdriver. The sound effects do not overwhelm the music. They simply add color to enhance the character of the dance. Raindrop Waltz includes the “drip, drop” sound of a screwdriver sliding up and down on a single string. Dragonfly Minuet has the gentle buzzing of insect wings produced by shaking a screwdriver between two adjacent strings. Spring Polka features the lively “boing” of a quick screwdriver vibrato.

These three short and playful pieces may be performed individually or as a set. Harp 1 is an intermediate level. Harp 2 is a beginner level. The optional Harp 3 part has no written music and may be taught by rote, following the other parts. It could be played by someone who has had only a few lessons.
