I’d love to be able to write songs like that, it sounds great! I’m a beginner (just got my first harp yesterday!!) and my aim is to be able to accompany myself singing, so it is wonderful and really interesting to be able to see how you accompany your voice.

Thank you everyone for such lovely advice!

I have found a teacher who I’ll hopefully have a lesson with soon, really looking forward to it! When I discussed the lesson with her, she said she can help advise me about what to buy etc which sounds great.

The advice about levers is very helpful, and I have been looking at the Sharpsicle too, that does look like a good starting-point. Also very useful to know about making sure there is a whole octave below middle C. I had been wondering about how many strings were best to start on and that was the impression I had got – that more would be easier and more flexible.

Thanks! Any advice is really helpful 🙂
