We Three Kings, harp
We Three Kings, harp
WE THREE KINGS is a classic Christmas carol, written in 1857 by John Henry Hopkins. This arrangement creates a wonderful sense of mystery with a time signature that shifts from 5/8 to 6/8.
Listen for reference to the CHRIST CHILD LULLABY, a traditional Scottish carol, which requires a simple lever change to transition into the Mixolydian mode.
This arrangement requires a larger floor harp and is appropriate for late intermediate players. The challenges include shifting time signatures, quick harmonics and scale passages. Minimal fingering suggestions are included in the score.

With shifts in mode and time signatures, the tunes fit beautifully together. There are a lot of skills here to practice. A challenging, but highly rewarding, piece.
