Hi again,

I have the names of three harp teachers for you.

The two replies I have had so far are from Harplisters called Melinda and Peter.

Melinda said:

Try Mona Peck [Melinda gave me her e-mail address, but I don't want to post that in a public forum, and I don't know where exactly she teaches].

And Peter said:

I don't know of any teachers precisely IN Westchester Cty., but there are two in not-too-distant New Jersey. The nearest is Deirdre Danaher Keating, who lives in Hillsdale, probably 15-20 minutes from the Tappan Zee Bridge.

[....Peter gave me her telephone number....] I'm not sure if she's actively teaching at the moment, though.
The other is Aideen O'Donnell, who lives in Chatham, somewhat farther south.
I don't have a telephone number for her, but her [e-mail address deleted] & Website is http://www.aideenodonnell.com/

If you want to find out the phone numbers and e-mail addresses we will need to work out a way to e-mail each other, or you could join Mudcat as a member and one of the benefits is that you can send personal messages (PM's) to other members, so then I could PM you privately with the details.

I hope this helps.

Helen

Hi NancAurelia,

I've just posted your request, without your details, to the e-mail Harplist. I am sure that someone on the list will be able to help you. I'll post any replies here.

The Harplist is a valuable resource with lots of kind and helpful folks, so you might want to consider joining the list.

If so,

There have been a number of threads here at Mudcat about harps, so you can do a search in the Lyrics and Forum Search box. Just type in

harp

to the box, and search the Forum only. Remember, though, that this is a folk and blues site, so some of the threads will be about blues harps and not harps with strings.

Have you tried Margaret Sanzo in Tarrytown? She's really nice though quite busy. I think she's in the phone book but let me know if you have trouble locating her. Also, there is a Hudson Valley Harp Guild that meets about once a month; I don't have contact info at my fingertips but could probably ferret it out within a week or two if you like. Margaret

I'm looking for a folk harp teacher w/in easy driving distance of Westchester Cty, north of New York City, and I'm having no luck. Do you know anyone in Westchester, Putnam, lower CT, etc?
