Rhett Barnwell's newest arrangement is of one of the most popular and requested hymns, "How Great Thou Art", for lever or pedal harp. Crafted for the intermediate player, it opens with a contemplative introduction, followed by the theme in the right hand, accompanied by a sixteenth note pattern in the left hand. Played at a slow tempo, and with much rubato, the sixteenth patterns will fall readily into the left hand. The arrangement makes use of alternate harmonizations and rhythms from the original, while easily recognizable as the popular hymn.

"Comfort Medley" includes "Dear Refuge of My Weary Soul" and "Hide Away in the Love of Jesus."  This arrangement is very straightforward, easy to play and easy to read.  It sounds great.  You receive the arrangement in both the keys of Eb and C.

"Sonata in D Major" by Michael W. Smith.  Works well as a wedding recessional arrangement, as the harp's strings ring out like cathedral bells!  Angi's music is straightforward, and comes in both Eb and C. Her arrangements are very playable and sound great.

Come Christians Join to Sing arranged by Frank Voltz

This piece is a study in slap bass. This arrangement has what it takes to “wake 'em up in the pews”. Modulates from G to C which requires one pedal change or 4 lever changes. Upper intermediate, lever or pedal harp. .
