When the Time is Right – Harp Ensemble – Wild Strings – In Association with Poppy Harp

“When the time is right” was written by Shelley specially for Wild Strings with the brief of creating a pop harp ensemble piece. This piece has been created to demonstrate some common feature of pop music and is therefore unashamedly “gorgonzola”!

You will find off-beat rhythms, triplets and use of semiquavers within the main tune, a repeating bassline, a riff that runs throughout the majority of the piece, added rhythmic elements such as clapping/accented repeating notes and the use of two well tried and tested pop chord progressions.

The chord progressions used are the so called “50’s progression” I – vi – IV – V in the verse and then the rising IV – V – iv or IV progression in the chorus, which alternates between the A major and A minor chord (ok so this is a slight twist!).

When performing this piece, attention to the off-beat rhythms, fast pace, energy and accenting should create the fun and upbeat feeling.

The main aim of this piece is just to have fun, so enjoy!
