Thanks for the reply, Andy!

This is a good point! I won’t advertise while there.
I read the FAQs and apparently there is a vendor that will rent harps to people who could not bring their own. Should be a fun week!

It seems that the Suzuki method teaches by learning the music first, and then learning to read what you already know, based on the idea that this is how we learn language.
Is there a Suzuki harp teacher in your area? Do you think this would help?As for theory… well it became much clearer to me when I was learning piano as a grownup with the Alfred Group piano book!

I once played “The Water is Wide” at a wedding. It’s a pretty song, but the bride gave me an arrangement that she wanted me to play, and it had the lyrics as well (I had never heard the lyrics before). The third verse of the song says “Love is sweet and love is fair, fair as the dew when first is new. But love grows old, and waxes cold, and fades away like morning dew.” Good thing no one was singing with me.
I’m sorry I didn’t know Ms. Necipoglu – and I’m sorry for the loss.

Hi, I’m pleased to see that Mildred holds a special place in the hearts of many. She well deserves it.
I don’t know if any of the members of this site have any copies of her annual Christmas letter. They were always a pretty good expression of Mildred’s vibrant personality and whirlwind life.
If anyone has copies still–i would love to see them.
Regards,
Skye
