Yes, and plenty of different folks have arrived independently at these same conclusions ( the II be a "bar line", repeating sections, the skinny petal being...
Hey all: A question has come up on another list I'm on- at what point historically did European triangular frame harps begin to use metal tuning pegs? Thanks1...
For what it's worth, 1101 works very well at the beginning of three out of 4 lines of "Edi Beo Thou Heven Quene": 1101 0101 1101 0101 0101 0101 1101 0101 Dunno...
Here's another clue. The Green Man, popular symbol of fertility in medieval times, is clearly shown on the chest area of this figure, looking down with many...
That's an interesting idea about the green man. I was wondering if the woman was Margaret Erskine, James V's favourite mistress. Maybe the tune was important...
Not bad. I would have cleared up the confusion between the Victorian "Celtic" harp and the "classical" wire-strung harp; i.e.; how the Celtic harp is a modern...

Wanda, if I may humbly recommend a visit to my own website, there is an introductory article there about the wire-strung harp. It's on the "articles" page of...

Hi Dianne Thanks for posting the Pavanes. I play a 'Fantasia' by Luis Milano but I do it on a single-row harp with lots of fretting! These pieces look like...
I spent alot of time learning to play lute from tablature, but I rarely approached this in terms of the actual note, but rather in terms of the string to be...

Gregory and Larry, thank you for your comments. And sorry for the double posting... I've been experimenting with the register on these pieces, often moving...
