My pedal harp maintenance book, A GUIDE FOR HARPISTS, has such a diagram. But it’s under copyright. Why don’t they just get the book so they have a reference for maintaining their harps close at hand!

Carl, your book is wonderful and students with harps would benefit from it but these students are in a high-risk low income area and do not own harps. They are learning about the harp without owning one and I would like to give them a diagram of the harp to let them study the harp parts. That’s why I am asking if there is one that is not under copyright.

Vanderbilt now owns the copyright to my book, so I can’t give you permission. You might ask them.

Misty, those students would also benefit from visiting the non-profit, educational site http://www.harpspectrum.org. There they will see a glossary of terms harpists often need, a history of the harp since the earliest times on record, articles on how a harp is made, and many other topics that sincere teachers try to give students in their weekly lessons. This site saves valuable hands-on teaching time, in lessons, and produces more of a thoroughly trained musician.

Hello.
I don`t know exactly what piece you are going to learn with your students, however I am willing to help you via e-mail.
You don`t need to pay me or worry about copyright. I am a harpist who has some degrees. (But, I have to tell you that English is not my first language.)

If you need any help or questions, please give me your e-mail address.
Thank you.

Just click on images on your (AOL) tool bar and put in HARP.

There are a number of pictures — but Venus Harp has a couple very nice diagrams on their web site too.

In case anyone is looking for something similar later on, I just found this: http://clipartist.info/www/MUSINIQUE.COM/P/papapishu_harp_3.svg.html

You can easily paste it into Word and create your own labels. I’m going to use it to make a diagram with blanks for my class to fill in the terms.
