    I assume that the ‘less important’ derives from the fact that different scales on the harp have the same fingering as each other.

    I learned on my school’s Gothic Erard and am generally fond of Erards.

    Harp care is the same indoors and outdoors- if you are comfortable, the harp could well be too.

    Some of my favourite harping dresses came from Monsoon’s sales.

    I learnt bass clef on the harp- my teacher just expected me to be able to read it as well as I could treble.

    Thanks Chester, I have asked for the part to be sent to me rather than just relearning the tap dancing from act III!

    I agree with the suggestions above to emphasise reading by interval relation to the previous note, and to rub this in with daily sightreading, even if all the notes are fingered with the 2nd in the first case.

    I think it is important to keep in perspective- how much maths training is needed to teach maths to primary school kids?

    I believe that having this topic discussed serves a very useful purpose as one of the things I hold against these harps is that they are sometimes bought by people who believe they are buying a better instrument than is the case.

    Many base covers do seem to be a design which could be improved upon- non slip materials for instance- the design I like best of the ones I have seen has a tighter fit, and fastens to the main cover for added security.

    I am in sympathy with not wanting to look at the strings all the time- I would never be able to sightread in orchestra if I had to!
