    Six years in and I’m still learning every time I sit down to the harp. Musicianship is a constant learning process, and I doubt there will be a moment where you feel you’ve “learned it”. More specific to your question though, sight reading can help you test how comfortable you are with the harp, as well as improvising. When there’s no prep work in advance, how comfortable are you? With no sheet music? Try it out 🙂

    I’m a harp student in college who’s only ever studied standard harp rep, but I’m dipping my toes in jazz now.. I just formed a group and I’m hoping to learn a lot from just playing with other people. I also have a book on harp improvisation that should help me out. I’d love to commiserate!
