Hi there,

If you contact the Toronto Harp Society at torontoharp@gmail.com, we can put out a mass e-mail for you to see if any of our members have a harp they can rent you. You could also try contacting kate@theharplady.ca who does harp rentals in the greater Toronto area.

All the best,

Angela Schwarzkopf
President of the Toronto Chapter of the American harp Society

Hi Elizabeth,

I recently completed my doctoral dissertation on Marcel Tournier. I have checked my records, and Renee David is listed as a student of Tournier on the 1911-1912 conservatory class list. It also states that she was admitted to the school in 1910. Although Tournier was not teaching at the conservatory in 1910, it is possible that she was a student of Tournier prior to her admission to the conservatory. Tournier frequently dedicated his repertoire to his students so this link is not surprising. I hope this helps!

John Marson wrote a book call, The Book of the Harp. In it he argues in favor of playing the harmonics an octave down. Although I don’t agree with it, it is a pretty interesting argument. Hope this is helpful!
