Subject: RE: 'All the dear Spinning Eileens' (Irish harpists)
keberoxu, I have a book by Sheila Larchet Cuthbert called The Irish Harp Book: a tutor and companion.
Being self-taught and mostly playing chords to accompany other melody instruments in our just-for-fun music group, I have never tried to learn from the book. I bought it in the mid to late '80's when I acquired my first harp. Now that I am older and a little better acquainted with the harp, maybe I should give the book another look and try to learn from it properly. It always looked a bit overwhelming to me when I first bought the book.
