Summer River, or Afon yr Af in Welsh, by Paul Nicholas & James Rourke from - Carreg Lafar - Band (1977)
it 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, composé par Paul Nicolas et James Rourke du groupe - Carreg Lafar - en 1977.
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.
