I had a really lovely day yesterday. Andy and I were playing at friends wedding, and it was great combination of good company, good food and a fabulous setting. So feeling rather fuzzy today, it seemed a good time to chill out and video Farewell to Stromness. I was inspired to learn this piece recently after listening to Ruth Wall's CD and especially wanted to play it on lever harp rather than concert harp. I think the sound of the lever harp is well suited to this piece. Although the middle section is a bit chromatic and it would be a lot easier on the concert harp.

Love this piece, have you published your arrangement? I would be thrilled to be able to purchase the sheet music if so, but can't find it in your shop at the moment. (I speak as someone for whom Stromness is one of my favourite places on earth!)
