O Holy Night Course
Value: USD$195
If you want to play a Christmas song that changes the atmosphere and shows off what the harp can do, this is the one! O Holy Night is a spectacular Christmas song that brings drama and a wow-factor, while proclaiming the truth about Jesus’ birth and that he came to bring hope. Christy-Lyn’s arrangement has beautiful downwards rippling arpeggios (similar to “The Little Fountain”), a dramatic glissando and a lot of dynamic variation.

Difficulty level & Skills required
Late-intermediate: The right hand is busy – it plays the melody in between playing downwards arpeggios and 4-note rolled chords, and also swaps down to join the left hand accompaniment. There are some quick lever changes including a spot where you change two levers at once. There is also a glissando that ends on a specific note.
Type of Harp
Lever harps or pedal harps: it is written with lever harps in mind, but pedal harps can just do the pedal changes at the first indication of a lever change of that note.

This piece is so lovely, and meaningful for so many. I’m excited to have finally made my way through it. Christy-Lyn’s encouragement and detailed instructions throughout are really helpful, and I learned so much (technique, dynamics, etc.) aside from the piece itself. Definitely worth the effort!!!!
