    What are your favorite examples of good and bad harp writing? What do you want composers to know about the harp? This is for a project I am developing.

    Oh my God Saul, one could write a HUGE book about this. That’s far too complicated a question for a Harp Column post.

    I think understanding pedalling is most important for composers until we genetically modify harpists to have 7 feet, it can make pieces really impossible even with careful use of enharmonics
