Hi, I haven't subscribed to harp Light YET, but it's on my list of things to do. I play a 36 string Thormahlen Swan most of the time, though for lessons,...
Hello Harp Friends I am looking for a lap harp that would be good for playing in hospitals at bedside and was wondering if any other harpists would have any...
This is the very reason I have a Dusty FH26. But, it cannot be played in my lap. it could be if I could grow another 8", but that's not likely. I still use...
... I never would have dreamed of trying to arrange music on my own if not for my smaller harp. My "big" harp is 29 strings, going down to C below middle C....

Hello Marlene, I am at work but will send the photo later today when I am at home and have access to my photos. This snuggly isn't perfect but I feel it works...
Could you post the picture of the harp snuggly? With it on you and with it off of you? I’d like to make one or adapt your design for my 23 string Rees ...
Hi All, especially Julie with her harp snuggly, I believe I have set up the list with the Files and Photo sections enabled. If folks want to post their pix,...
