A Song for the Little One
This is a beautiful piece written by Catherine Guilbeau with Enfolded Heart Music. I’ve modified the left hand to make use of the larger range on the Lynda Lyre. If you want to learn this lullaby, you can purchase the sheet music from Catherine and/or follow her YouTube tutorial:
I hope you enjoy my double strung arrangement as well, played on 2 BJL 19-string acoustic lyres.
Fairy Song on Lyre
This is a tune I wrote to go with a poem a few years ago. It sounds lovely and more magical, I think, on a lyre with steel strings. This one is a 7-string BJL pentatonic lyre in G Major.
The same lyre played with Pickaso Guitar Bow.
