Hello, The lever harp is a nice instrument, but it is a toy compared to the pedal harp.

The most important aspect of life is to enjoy it. I am a pianist doubling on harp.

I always made and still make a good living performing on keyboard.

I majored in accounting. Worked a year at it, and hated it. Prepared taxes etc.

I did this because my parents and friends told me many times that I will starve as a musician. Well that is a bunch of…… A word of advice till those of you who want to major in music. Do it, Dont waste your time doing something just for money. If you are good the money will come. But you have to be the best or try to be, at whatever you do. And that means giving 200 percent to practicing,

and being able to perform in any given situation.
