I think most harpists can agree - finding sheet music for us is a challenge at the best of times. So often the songs we most want to play don't have any sheet music for harp, or what we can find isn't suitable for us, being too hard or in the wrong key.
That's pretty much why I started writing arrangements in the first place; but it was a real struggle for a long time. Over the years I developed a system that made things much easier for me, and now I'd love to share that with other harpists to save you the years of frustration that I went through, so you can just play what you want to play, without being limited by what sheet music is out there.
