A. HASSELMANS Petite Berceuse POUR HARPE This is the sheet music for "Petite Berceuse (Little Lullaby)," a beautiful piece by Alphonse Hasselmans (1845-1912), an essential repertoire for harpists and renowned as a master of etudes. Hasselmans was a professor at the Paris Conservatory, where he trained many famous harpists (including Henriette Renié and Marcel Grandjany), and he was also an outstanding composer and arranger himself. His works, which fully understand the characteristics of the harp, are often highly effective in performance and also include many that are suitable for technical training. This "Petite Berceuse," as the name suggests, is a gentle, swaying lullaby. While simple in structure, it maximizes the delicate and warm tones of the harp, providing listeners with a sense of peace. With a difficulty level that is easy for beginners to intermediate players (Grade: Beginner-Intermediate), it is an ideal piece for learning musical expression, balance between both hands, and control of tone, and is widely used as a teaching material in harp classrooms around the world. It can be played on both lever harps (Celtic harps) and pedal harps (grand harps), and is sometimes selected as a required piece for the novice division of recitals and competitions. It is also recommended for those who have just started playing the harp, as the first piece to perform in front of an audience, separate from their daily practice. The sheet music is published by the long-established French music publisher Alphonse Leduc, and is a beautiful volume with an attractive cover design.
