Review of “Solo Autoharp”
Autoharp Quarterly, Winter 2013
By Stew Schneider
In the unlikely event there is anyone
connected with the autoharp who has not
heard of Ms. Mueller, this much be said:
she is either the most talented performer
on the autoharp who regularly teaches,
or she is the most gifted teacher who
actively performs.
It is not only her technical perfection
that makes her playing so riveting. It is
her impeccable control of timing and
dynamics, the downright musicality of
her playing and her effortless use of the
entire harp. The exceptional La Partida is
something any player should experience, not
once, but many times and with a tear in
the eye for that which will never be.
This CD includes the sheet music as PDFs
accessible from your computer.
This makes the CD uniquely valuable
to those who can discern music from
dots on a page. It reflects her passion for
teaching and her generosity to have gone
to the trouble to make arrangements, transcribe
them and make them available.
The music included is, as you might
guess, flawless or as near to as makes no
odds.
