I just received the music for Wagner’s “Flying Dutchman” for February performances. Would anyone have and be willing to share pedal markings with me? Not many measures of music but it seems a pedaling/enharmonic challenge.
Thank you!
Hi Elizabeth, just wondering if your version is the same as the one in Bullen’s principal harp book? I find that version, although playable, still quite challenging.
Also what is the tempo the orchestra usually play at? In Bullen’s edition it’s written as minim=63, and the one on IMSLP said 72. But all the ones I have heard on youtube are way faster than that.
No, I have a different version than in Sarah Bullen’s book. It can go very fast. Nowadays, it seems that everyone is going as fast as humanly possible, or beyond.
