Description
xSheet music for 17 tracks from the Masterharper of Pern CD:
Robinton's Whistle Tune; The Duty Song; The Masterharper's Ball; Red Star Passes; The Golden Egg of Faranth (I, II & III); The Plains of Telgar; The Question Song; Fighting Thread; Star Stone; Lessa's Ride; Nonsuch; Fire Lizard; Dragonlady (Annie McCaffrey's Jig); March of the Wings; Merelan. Includes notes on the notation and an index of diagrams for guitar chord used in the book. "The response was overwhelming when we released the Masterharper of Pern CD. It came mostly in the form of two often repeated questions: 'Can we get sheet music for this?' and 'When will you do a recording of Menolly's music?' We'll get to the second question later, but this songbook is the answer to the first. We had to make a lot of decisions about the notation ... We've tried to find the heart of each arrangement, leave out the extras which would tend to make it more difficult to read, and keep the parts that will be most useful to most people. We hope we've at least come close to achieving that goal... "As for the music of Menolly- our second Pern collaboration was released in 2009 and, as so many of you hoped, it is based on the Harperhall novels. Anne expanded some of her lyric snatches (as did we), and she found, among her old files, a complete Pern ballad she wrote in 1969 that had never been published. You'll find all that on the CD Sunset's Gold, available from www.Opland-Freeman.com"
