Preparing for a wedding in October where the bride requested Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah for walking down the aisle - just for her specifically, so I'll be playing the Irish tune "Southwind" for the bridal party and then switching when she and her father come in. Thanks to a harper friend, I was able to get my hands on a harp arrangement of the tune. Here's the version:
Hallelujah - arr. Michelle Whitson Stone
Some tricky rhythms going on, but I have time to absorb it, and otherwise the arrangement is well within my comfort zone.
