I hope you like it after all my raving! ... of course, it's always subjective, so I'll be interested to learn what anyone else who who has/gets this thinks of...
Paula, I wish I could make that! Unfortunately there are enough things going on here that it would be very difficult. Is there a book that you know of that...
... Well, there are all those 15th-century basse-dance tenors. Most of them survive as just a series of breves, but a few (e.g. Danse de Cleves) have...
Hmmm, I had the same story with the ad for my harps. But having an experience of dealing with them before, when they actually warned me not to put too many...

Right now I'm playing a 22 string harp which has no levers. The music that I enjoy playing is Renaissance and English Country dance music. I haven't learnt...
Andrea, From what I've learned, levers came along actually later than the pedal mechanism, around the 19th C.; counter-intuitive, isn't it. The early ...
Is there any Polish music commercially available for harp? I'm looking for music pre-1650. It doesn't necessarily have to be from the Renaissance. A.O.Boyer...
And to add to this - my wife plays such an arpa doppia, 2 rows, and always felt rather guilty because while in theory you can play in any key, it's hard to...
... During another course (in Bremen) someone asked Andrew Lawrence-King the same question: Do we retune or not? I still can't help laughing thinking of his ...
