Thanks Jennifer for letting us know that the Heartland Infinity comes with an internal retractable leg, (sounds similar to my Ravenna 26), that’s great!
Hi Jan,
Sorry, I don’t own one (yet) either…..However, a friend of mine has the new carbon fiber Heartland Delight in a beautiful green color, and I was able to play it, lift it and listen to its fantastic tone while seated at the back of a very large room. All I can say is, it’s a great harp! And yes, it could fall over in a not too strong wind, but it wouldn’t take much to secure it either.
Yes it does…Check this YouTube video out by Paula Smith, she’s playing Vissi D’arte (Puccini) on a Dusty 36B (try to ignore the sales pitch, she’s a rep. for Morley Harps)…. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PNEl1qBVURo
What I like best about my individual harps is their difference in tone and sustain…My favorite harp, if I had to pick one, is by far the walnut Dusty Strings 36S..It has, to my ears, the most absolutely brilliant tone for a variety of different music, from Celtic to Classical.
Another beautiful hymn is, “Ag Criost An Siol” (The Seed is Christ’s) by Sean O’Riada. You can find a sample of it on YouTube.
Well, personally, I wouldn’t be content if that was my only harp…I own a Ravenna 26, and I love the harp, it’s tone, portability and durability, but like I’ve stated before, I do have to rearrange a few of my tunes.
I second the advice on getting a Dusty Strings Ravenna 34….A friend of mine has one and (as I’ve said before) the tone is fantastic, and it’s a very sturdy harp, very well made…. Good Luck, Gloria
