I just got home from a harp lesson with Sharlene Wallace. She is a GREAT Celtic harp teacher. She addressed not only the notes and the technique, but also the spiritual centre of my playing. There is such a genuine wholeness to the way she teaches, so that it's not just about a specific tune or accompaniment pattern or arm movement or fingering pattern or releasing tension in the shoulder....it's about musicianship. Sharlene's sense of humour, her ability to listen, and her way with metaphors - it really teaches you something much bigger than arpeggios, chords and melodies.

I'd love to hear about other great teachers.
