    It is unfortunate that his teaching was largely limited to North American students and has thus been slow to spread abroad.

    Cynthy, can you elaborate a little, particularly on harp pedagogy?

    William McKinley wrote such a piece and there is a Concerto by Rudajev. There are possibly many pieces if you look in a library and publishers catalogs.

    in reply to: Question about harp exercises #84191

    I would recommend that you use the Lawrence/Salzedo Method for its exercises. They are a bit more basic than the Conditioning Exercises which are challenging and meant to build strength and coordination.

    Lyon & Healy used to sell their own attache case, once upon a time. I remember Karen Gottlieb had one, and in her car she had a set of plastic drawers for hardware to hold all the mechanical parts to repair her harp. Very impressive.

    The best strings overall that I know of would be Pirastro.

    Again, I would consider at least beginning with analog recording, which is very simple and easy to do by yourself, and then transferring it to digital for editing if necessary.

    in reply to: Need data/info on physical requirements to play #150912

    A Dr. Bejjani, formerly married to Elaine Christy Bejjani, did studies on several New York harpists to compare their techniques. He may have the data you need. The study might have been published in the Journal of Performing Arts Medicine. There are doctors out there with the knowledge you need. There are Performing Arts Medicine organizations through which you can try to locate them. Many other doctors won’t bother. I brought my orthopedist a video and he never bothered to watch it. Heinz Lippmann was at Montefiore in the Bronx, and he helped harpists, but I don’t know if he published anything or left any documentation. I know a harpist who went through the same thing, if you write me, I can give you her name.

    What does a guitar have to do with the harp?

    This harp belonged to Walter Pfeil. I haven’t been able to find out anything more. He extensively modified it as you can see from the pictures of the base. He is/was wont to replace any metal parts with ones of his own choosing.

    in reply to: cool slang names for pieces #108727

    Some don’t really need a nickname, such as “Fingal’s Cave”.

    in reply to: Harp Camp #166534

    The Rocky Mountains Harp Camp has excellent instruction with Christa Grix and a wonderful atmosphere.
