Golden Hour by JVKE is a GORGEOUS love song that came out in 2022.
I first heard it last year and fell in love with it, and had to arrange it for both lever and pedal harp!
Take a listen:
When I was playing at weddings last year, I kept thinking about how great it would be to be able to play this song for my clients.
Most of the time, I arrange things for pedal harp first and then make adjustments to make a lever harp version, but with Golden Hour I actually started on lever harp first, to make sure I'd be able to play it on whichever harp I happened to bring to a wedding gig.
There are a lot of moving parts in this song, so I was worried at first that it would be tough to make it sound good on lever harp especially, but I was so wrong!
I think it sounds really wonderful and a little bit ethereal on the lever harp!
There were some fun challenges in this arrangement and I feel quite clever for figuring them out, hah.
If you’d like to play this arrangement for yourself, I have a lever and pedal harp version available on Musicnotes:
