    If she teaches well, don’t look for another teacher! Friendly, nice teachers produce lazy students with bad technique. It’s a good thing for kids learning an instrument to be a bit afraid of their teacher!

    No, i haven’t, but i heard that they’re very durable haha. The celtic sound is wire (clarsachs are all copper/silver), i’ve played some celtic music on my gut harp and it sounded way better than our nylon school harp. I’m thinking that playing prés de la table could make your desired celtic effect? Good luck and practise etudes! 🙂

    Yes there is a huge difference between the concert and the other version, i’m used to the concert one (we have it in school) but they had the other one at a competition and it sounded much more quiet and the sound was quite dull. However, let me give you a very helpful piece of advice, never buy a harp, lever or pedal with nylon strings, always gut! Nylon strings are unnatural and don’t even resemble the beautiful sound of gut strings used for centuries.
