Thread Name: Harp during Irish sessions
Subject: RE: Harp during Irish sessions
We have a young harpist plays at our session - cos she is at school she tends to appear just during holidays. She came third in the 15-18 All Ireland this year. Fine harper, she uses sharping levers and manages to play with virtually everything chording when she doesn't know the tune and melody when she does. It only takes a couple of shouts to shut the bar up for her to play solo for a few sets each evening. Wonderful; I wish there were more harps in sessions.
