For now I am working on relearning some of the more chromatic pieces I play on lever harp on the pedals just to get back in to the habit of using my feet. That way I can pay more attention to my feet and my hands basically know what to do without too much direction (except I keep going to flip levers out of habit).

After that I am going to work on some Jazz pieces I have been playing around with arranging but couldn’t pull off on levers. I may also relearn some classical pieces I know on lever harp, but where there are some other great arrangements for pedal harp, such as the Handel Bb Concerto and some of my favorite Debussy pieces.

Thanks Brooke. Yes, the other is a L&H Folk harp, the third of too many harps I have owned.

Thanks again everyone for the kind words. And Briggsie, yes it is new. Shipped direct from Lyon & Healy. In fact when I first inquired they had several ebony ones on the floor. I took about two days to consider and when I called back to finalize the order they had all been sold so I had to wait another month for them to finish the next batch. So it’s so new it hasn’t even sat on the showroom floor.
