That is not a matter of time or hours – there are songs that are pretty easy to learn and you will take just a few days to learn them and others you wont know them after years. It is very hard to tell – it depends how you learn, how concentrated and how many songs at the same time …
There is no answer for that sorry 🙂I know exactly where you are coming from I love doing music and i think im pretty good in it but when it comes to read music i am horrible. I can not combine my hand and what i read.
But it is just a matter of training and i promise it will be better in a few years – but never forget it has to be fun – so play sometimes without reading and you will learn soon that reading is not everything!My Dusty Strings FH32 has been with me for almost sixteen years; her name is Danu, named for one of the primal goddesses of Ireland. There aren’t any stories about her, just some place-names in the south and west of Ireland. But her name is part of the mythical fourth wave of invaders of Ireland, the Tuatha Dé Danann, the Tribe of the Goddess Danu.
My first harp is named Brigid, a much better-known deity of the Celtic lands.I have read many many replies re cracked/bleeding finger tips.
There was one thing that I had not tried. Anti-fungal cream!
I went to the store and picked up a tube of anti-fungal cream
for a whopping $1.99. I put it on my fingers (all 6 that were
cracked, put band aids on and rubber gloves on my hands.
The next morning I took off everything and my cracks were almost
completely healed. They were probably anywhere between 75 to 96
percent healed. Also mentioned numerous times was to wash hands
with MESSAGE KEY MISSING: '2' (dandruff shampoo). I am now doing that as well.
Believe me this is the best my finger tips have looked in over
5 months. Try it - see for yourself. Good LuckDear harpists,
well, to give a response to Lynne.
I am harpist Regina Ederveen and the other one harpist of the last two harp finalists for the YouTube Symphony!For me it was a great joy and challenge to record and upload a little video, playing the Haendel Concerto in 3 1/2 minutes…..
And to my great surprise, the international committee chose me, to be chosen by you, if you are as enthusiastic as I am!I really would LOVE to play at Carnegie Hall, the dream of every musician, especially from

I would very much like to have a masterclass with Isabelle Perrin, David Watkins and Susann McDonald.
Pianists and harpists are always in the airport mall of the main terminal. Keep and eye open for us. Stop and say hi.
Hi, Jerusha:
I play there three days a week – usually Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. I share the space with another harpist. We are either in front of RADIO ROAD or MINNESOTA. Stop by and say hi.
