ParticipantHappy New Year!
It sounds like quite a few of us will be playing new harps in the New Year!
A week ago, I

ParticipantDavid:
What a gorgeous harp! Thanks for sharing the pics. Your new Venus appears to be joining a grouping of harps.

I understand your enthusiasm and desire for your wife to join you in the rich experience you’re having. I hope

I think I may have that same CD. The one I have is “Relaxing Christmas Harp,” (produced by Brue Kurnow

ParticipantHi Ken..
Mmmm…wonder what you’ll be doing the rest of the day?

ParticipantWanda:
Thank you for posting. As one who responded tersely to Beth’s post, I now understand what may have motivated her comments. Still, I believe that our own personal tragedies (and we’ve all had them), do not give us license to lash out at totally innocent people. I wish Beth well in this terribly painful time.
Best regards,

ParticipantOh my….I misspelled “wonder” in the above post.

ParticipantJohn:
I love your dashes, too. It’s Beth’s I don’t like. You know….I wander if we were pranked by Beth. She has only two posts to this board and I don’t think a real harpist would make such ugly comments.
And more cudos to Charles for having created such a wonderful memory by playing at his sister’s wedding.
Onward!

ParticipantBeth:
As a professional editor, I would like to call your attention to the inappropriate use of the dash in your sentence. After your words, “I disagree,” you should place a period. Then start with a new sentence. The use of the dash here is wrong.
Finally, I am appalled at the mean spirit of your post. Another person was sharing his experience and joy…and you were quite cruel. How ugly. I don’t think we are interested in your grammar lesson. Find yourself a “grammar board” and post there.

ParticipantRe: Articles on Swanson site
The two articles that Carl Swanson mentions are excellent articles on playing in public!

ParticipantLisa:
You are not alone! I simply moved my harp to another room over the weekend…and stumbled through songs that I know pretty well. (Yes, the strings looked different with carpet under them, compared to the hardwood I’m used to!)
Someone posted here a while back (I think it was Kay), who said she was playing at a public event and a woman in a

ParticipantHi Margaret:
How exciting. I don’t think you will have any problem switching to a pedal harp. I have made the switch. I’m a new student (been taking lessons a year). I had always taken my lessons on a lever harp, and

Welcome.

ParticipantHello:
I applaud you for taking the action! You will love your new endeavor–the harp.
When I started a year ago, I could not read music, either. (This had stopped me from playing an instrument for decades.) Then, I got to thinking: if 5th graders are learning this…maybe I can, too!
