“Scottish
& Irish Boat Songs for Therapeutic Harp” is
part of Verlene’s Therapeutic Harp Series, which
includes collections of tunes that work well for
bedside music, ambient music in healthcare
facilities, or anywhere you want to play simple,
but lovely arrangements that soothe and comfort
the listener. Boat songs tend to evoke the gentle
motion of a boat in the water, and can be very
soothing to hear! The tunes are in 0, 1, and 2
sharps with no lever changes. There are tunes in
primarily in Ionian mode (major keys), with a
sprinkling of Mixolydian, Aeolian, and Dorian
modes.
Other
books in the series include: O'Carolan Tunes; Lullabies & Waltzes; Classical;
Scandinavian;
Middle East, Far East, & Eastern European;
Spanish & French; and Americana. 25 pages.
