O Holy Night Sheet Music
O Holy Night Sheet Music
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 created 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.
