Have you discussed this with your teacher? I’m sure they would like to know and would be willing to help you find some new music to learn. I try to keep communication open with my students so they feel comfortable bringing up any concerns. I’m sure your teacher feels the same way and wants you to be happy with your lessons!
There’s so much wonderful Celtic music available on harpcolumnmusic.com. (My book is 21 Easy Irish Songs for All Harps). Celtic music is definitely great for learning to play!
Best of luck and let us know what happens.
It’s just a wedding venue. The banquet manager said they require all outside vendors to provide proof of liability insurance. They must have had an incident. I guess it’s in case someone trips over my amp or something. It doesn’t seem necessary for a harpist but in this day and age you never know.
I contacted Western Financial and they only cover musicians in Canada. The Hartford told me they don’t offer liability insurance to musicians; only to music teachers. I’m going to keep pursuing it and will let you know if I’m able to find an insurance company that offers it.
I just ordered a new black folding music stand after researching all the options. It is an Onstage SM7222B. It has very thick, sturdy legs. There are knobs to tighten the stand instead of those old hinges that always catch your fingers. It folds up as one single unit which is really convenient. It all fits into a carrying bag. It probably weighs 2-3 lbs. The only thing that I don’t like about it is the shelf is only an inch deep- the one on my old silver stand is 1 1/2″. So it’s not going to hold a heavy book but it’s perfect for sheet music. They make a lighter version, SM7122. They have a video that shows the features of each. I bought mine from Amazon and there are a lot of reviews up.
