Don’t have a picture, but the Albin Polasek Museum that features a harp water fountain had a harp cake made for a special exhibit. Also, I have a Lyon & Healy harp-shaped cookie cutout that’s big enough for a small cake.
Guitar, harp, banjo in that order. Can play lute derivatively, because I played lute and vihuela music on guitar. On trips, sometimes take along a bowed psaltery because it’s so eminently portable.
Double up on some things on harp and guitar but not so much on banjo, that being a cheeky, twangy, inherently disrespectful instrument.
I enjoyed a harp concert featuring 18 harps last Sunday. All traditional carols and no “Frosty” or “Rudolph.”
No. I’m sometimes astonished at the type of information brochures or similar materials omit to give.
I bought a lyre-back chair with a shlocky finish when the old San Juan Hotel was auctioning off its contents back in the late ’70s. Cost me $5. Recently my daughter had it repaired and refinished for my birthday. It’s now stained ebony to match my harp, and I use it with a brilliant black-red-purple-&c pillow to give me another inch or so.
