Product Description

This excerpt of J.S. Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" is great for weddings (especially if it's a last-minute booking!) or anywhere where you need just a recognizeable section of the piece. It could also be great for special music at church.

I hope the straightforward arrangement and short duration make it easier to watch as the bride or any part of the part walk down the aisle, as well as provide an easy place to end the piece (and an easy repeat to lengthen it).

This arrangement includes a written out left hand as well as chord symbols. If you stick to the notes that are written out, no pedal or lever changes (accidentals) are required.

A few finger markings are included, but not many. (If you'd prefer more, please request it at the contact link below!)

The top two lines are in the key of G Major. The bottom two lines are in C Major. Choose whichever key fits best with your harp and the day's repertoire. (If you'd like any other keys, please let me know!)

If you play this piece, I'd love to hear how it goes! Please let me know at fischarper.com/contact.
