It's a Cousineau. It seems salvageable. The pedals and pedal box are gone, and the pedal box lid will need some reconstruction, but if the woodworm damage...

Hello Ann, and welcome from the west coast too. I'm interested in how you are transferring music from the lute to the harp. I too love the lute, though I don't...
Over the past year or so I have been involved in the making of a documentary concerning Denis Hempson and his Downhill harp. My role has been concerned with...
