Thread Name: Help: harp for beginners
Subject: Help: harp for beginners
i do hope some of you wonderful people out there can help me. A few weeks ago i sort of stumbled into buying a second-hand harp (these things happen) :) Its a clarsach, 30 strings i think
Now i'd love to learn to play, but im not really sure where to start i am musically literate - I have been playing the guitar and singing for years - but the harp is a whole new adventure....
can anyone recommend any good tutorial books, preferably not too expensive or books of simple music? i would like to learn to play simple and pretty celtic style pieces, and also accompany my ballad singing... i also need to buy a couple of strings, but no-where seems to stock them
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks jo
