Hanukkah Melodies for Harp - Music Book


This book is a collection of some of the most popular Hanukkah melodies sung and performed in Israel and North America. Chords have been added to help the harpist fill out the arrangement and to easily add guitar.

Sunita has used the pedal harp method of notating accidentals because lever changes are for one note at a time and the same as the pedal changes.
