    I bought a small Mid East harp about 15 years ago, mail order. I think I paid about $250 for it. The thing is a dog, unplayable, and the levers are useless. The only redeeming value is that is is quite pretty with the dark wood and carving on the side of the sound box. For this reason I still keep it in my teaching studio– as a decoration.

    Would be really great if someone could keep a blog posted, like the one in Israel. Better yet, a video blog.

    About flexible finger brackets: I have found that in the smart shape tool there is an option to create one. You have to specify the length of the ‘hook’ (.01 for up and -.01 for down).

    Hi David!

    Yes I just noticed your post in the other thread. I guess I didn’t read the booklet carefully enough the first time! It’s great they are using so many instruments. I want to

    We went a few weeks ago– I loved the harp in that score! It sounded very much like an electric harp to me. Just bought the soundtrack yesterday for my kids. It lists the harpists names but didn’t say if it was electric harp or not. It did mention “rendered harp solo” by Steve Tavaglione.

    I was able to pick out some of it on the harp by ear –my kids were very delighted to hear me playing Wall-E!
