Karen,
We actually took a field trip to see a harp I was considering for purchase. It was about a 25 minute drive, so I figured this alone was probably worth $75? We did make a stop she requested on the way home to look at some harps she might be interested in renting for a different student. This stop ended up taking nearly two hours.

After actually spending some time w/my harp, various books, and a couple of lessons…I realize as an adult, I definitely do NOT want to be playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, nor suffer visions of dancing teddy bears floating across the pages of an instruction book. Thanks for the great suggestions on books and websites. I’ll definitely check these out.
Many thanks to all who have commented, and those who continue to leave addtional thoughts.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I’d like to point out that I am currently playing a troubadour, in case this is a factor in what method I start with.

Thanks for all the great input. This information certainly gives me a lot to meditate on, as I embark on this journey.

Greetings,
Some background: I can read music, and have played the clarinet and piano – though not very well. Notwithstanding, I don’t have much music theory knowledge. I’d consider myself a “square one” beginner with regard to the above. Simply put, I’d say my goal in learning to play the harp is to play (sheet music, and by ear) with GOOD technique. I trust my playing will improve with the benefit of having a good foundation, which is why I want to begin on the right track. While I do not have professional ambissions, I would like to be able to play for others and myself for therapeudic reasons and sheer enjoyment.
I hope this provides some perspective about my inquiry and background. I thank you for sharing your positive experience with regard to the Grossi Method.
Best Regards,
