Summer River, or Afon yr Af in Welsh, is a beautiful piece inspired by the musical tradition of Wales. Its simple and flowing melody evokes the gentle movement of a river in summer, carrying us into a deeply folk and timeless atmosphere.

« Summer River », ou « Afon yr Af » en gallois, est une magnifique pièce inspirée par la tradition musicale galloise. Sa mélodie simple et fluide évoque le doux cours d'une rivière en été, nous transportant dans une atmosphère folklorique et intemporelle.
To make the piece accessible to more harpists, I offer two versions of this arrangement:
– one version adapted for 27-string Celtic harps,
– and another version for 34-string harps, allowing for a wider range and a fuller resonance.
