Orchestral Arrangement of "No Quarter" by Led Zeppelin No Quarter

Orchestral Arrangement for "And You & I" by YES And You And I

As promised, here is a VERY ROUGH first draft of the harp part (It will look much prettier when it is done) At this stage, this is to determine if I am on the right track with this transcription, and is it playable. I would appreciate ANY comments. I am particularly interested in the playability of the section at Rehearsal "D". BTW the work is Supper's Ready by Genesis. Thanks Mark Steinberg Framework Printout.pdf

Thanks for all the comments. I am writing a small part of what I intend to do in one of the numbers. I will post a PDF of the harp part when I finish the first draft. (couple of days, maybe sooner). Thanks Mark

Yes, but couldn't I spell that out as a Gb + F natural?

I understand your concern with the chords, but all of them will be arpeggio chords. Do you still think it is a problem? Thanks Mark

If there are any harpists out there, I would like to get some advice on writing for harp. I am involved in a project that is orchestrating much of the Progressive Rock music of the 70's to include a full symphonic orchestra backing the rock band. I will be writing some of the acoustic guitar parts for harp, and would like to know the limitations of the instrument. Yes, I have read many orchestration books, but it is one thing to read it in a book, and another to hear from a harpist themselves. Thanks in advance Mark

I could feel the begining of a fugue at measure 58, then I was let down at measure 62 :(. Just my humble opinion. I would have developed a short fugue there. Otherwise, I'm VERY IMPRESSED!!
