Pachelbel's Canon & Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring CD

Pachelbel's Canon & Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (Companion CD to the Songbook). Arranged by Sylvia Woods. For Harp. Harp. CD only. Published by Hal Leonard.

This companion CD will assist harp players in learning the pieces in the Pachelbel's Canon and Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring books. Since many will want to “play along” as they learn, Sylvia has recorded these pieces slower than they are usually played and as “straight” as possible with little or no expression or rhythmic variations. The Canon was recorded at a metronome marking of 92, and Jesu at 100. In all of the duet versions, one harp part is on one tract of the stereo, and the second harp part (or the flute part) is on the other. If you can adjust the separate channels, you can hear each part separately. The three versions of the Canon are played first in the original key of D, and then in the key of G. All the versions of the Jesu are without repeats and go straight to the second ending.
