The Lark - Glinka / Balakirev

Standard: Advanced    Harp Type: Pedal Harp

The tradition of performing this celebrated piano piece on the harp  was established by the great Russian harpist and pedagogue Alexander Slepushkin. Unfortunately, his transcription were not written down or published, so they were handed down by his students.This reduction  relates to the original performing tradition in the class of Vera Dulova, which she took over from her teacher Maria Korchinskaya, who in turn was a  student of Alexander Slepushkin. In this  version, which is published for the first time, almost all the text is original, except for a  few minor adaptations in the cadenzas.
