Lauren Scott has been arranging for harps for over 30 years - from classical to pop music - from harp solos to harp ensembles - ranging from pieces for the beginner harpist to advanced standard player.
Lauren has always focused on careful voicing within her arrangements and making sure that there are clear patterns and logical hand shapes within the music which are appropriate to the overall players standard for any particular piece.
From summer 2018 Lauren will be going through her collection and making her arrangements publicly available. As and when they are published they will be listed on this page.
