Thread Name: More Strings Than Most: how many harps?
Subject: RE: More Strings Than Most: how many harps?

I play, in a limited fashion, the Kora (West African 21-string double-harp lute)....studied with Malamini Jobarteh in The Gambia in '95-'96, and the instrument survived the various plane journeys to Australia in a padded cloth case.
