ParticipantWOw – since you are near DUsty Strings – GO THERE!! I just bought the FH36S!!! We went for the 9 hour drive to Salem Mass to try out the only Egan I could find on the east coast and I loved it – but the Dusty was there for comparison and I FELL IN LOVE. It has the most gorgeous full throated resonance and rich tone. DO try it prior to buying anything if you possibly can. Have fun . I sure did. I want the Salvi Egan too, but that would take very deep pockets…!

ParticipantListen carefully to the places where the Camac changes string material if it does. You should not hear too much difference in tone between string types. I am no authority but it does matter if you can hear a difference as the tone won’t be uniform. I experienced this problem trying out a Stivell with 3 different string types where you could clearly hear the tone difference between each and it was not uniform. Know nothing about L&H. I liked the Dusty Strings FH36 (this seems like a fabulous harp)and the Salvi Livia I tried and am probably getting a Salvi Egan as it is larger. Go by your ear and what sounds good to you. Of course your budget will dictate but get the most harp you can afford!

ParticipantThank you very much Rachael, for your quick reply. I am glad to here that the sheet music is in development and hope that the developing is quick! I am in love with this piece. Maybe if Catriona knew that some of us would pay a LOT of money for it, it would spur her on!! I sure would!
