Misty Mountains Cold (Early-Intermediate) Sheet Music
If you’re a fan of “The Hobbit”, then you’ll love being able to play “Misty Mountains Cold” on the harp! You’ll get good practice playing cleanly in the lower register with the dramatic left-hand rolled chords to emulate the low voices of the singing dwarves. This adaptation maintains the slow, mysterious character of the original song while adding movement and interest through rhythmic patterns and harmonies. If you learn this piece with the video course, Carrie will walk you through how to master those tricky rhythms and avoid buzzing with all those low, rolled chords!
