Introducing a major new work for solo harp, inspired by the retro vinyl Jukebox...The 1950's were the heyday of the vinyl record jukebox, and this new 14-minute work for Solo Harp mirrors the concept of the jukebox, playing short 'singles' that vary in style & feel. Jukebox was composed by Andy Scott for harpist Sioned Williams. Enjoy the full, premiere performance above by harpists Sioned Williams, Keziah Thomas, Lauren Scott, Alex Rider, Elizabeth Bass & Eleanor Turner, with each harpist playing one movement of this six-movement work: RPM, Jump, Vinyl, Groove, Stylus & Turntable. Harpist Sioned Williams spoke to HarpColumn prior to Jukebox's online premiere in May 2021. Commissioned for her 60th birthday, Sioned worked with Andy to create a piece reminiscent of her teenage years and “jukeboxes were popping up everywhere, bringing color and fun.” Learn more about the piece & its background by clicking here Jukebox is "great fun and worth the many hours of practice" The sheet music for Jukebox is available as a PDF download at Harp Column Music here
