A love affair indeed! Rosey, I completely agree with you! I have a Mademoiselle and I adore it! I went through a terrible ordeal with the L&H Ogden and finally just got rid of it to upgrade to the Mademoiselle. I’ve had it for 4 years now and it continues to impress me. There was a time when I thought I would eventually want to move up to a pedal, but this harp has/does everything I need. It is truely a thing of beauty.
