ParticipantI think your university may have workable solutions for you, like someone else in this thread already mentioned.
Why not contact your university? Seems to mee the most logical way to go…

ParticipantDear Jana, I feel so sorry for you.
Perhaps, as Chris is active on Facebook, maybe the best way to get him to respond

ParticipantAnd this: http://www.enchantedharp.com/Used_Harps/UsedPetite930.JPG is how this former type of a 38 string Camac looked like as a lever harp.
I don’t think installing pedals on a lever harp could be economically interesting and I don’t know whether these old Camac lever harps can still be adapted for (single action) pedals.

ParticipantI just wondered what happened to your rental Venus Classic ‘Gilligan’. Were you not happy with her in the long run?

ParticipantThank you, Mahtab. Yes, the youtube movie is great.
I was not able to find other movies with a Camac Bardic 27, although this type of harp has been on the market for some years now.
Somehow there are many more people playing a Dusty Ravenna 26 or Dusty PH26 on Youtube.
Apart from the youtube movie of Salvi on its new Salvi Juno with 27 strings (introduced in September 2010), there don’t seem to be other recordings yet.
The newest model of travel harps I found, was a Triplett Shanti harp of 28 strings. I haven’t found any recording of it, yet.
And then there are of course all the travel harps made by local builders…
So, lots and lots of choices… Anyway, I hope there are people who tried both the Camac Bardic 27 and other travel harps who are willing to share their experiences.

ParticipantCamac Bardic is avalaible in 22 and 27 strings.
The Camac with 27 strings is one of the small harps I am interested in.
In the UK available from: http://www.camacharps.co.uk/index.html?pages/leverharps/bardic_27.htm~mainFrame
And maybe from other stores as well.
Another interesting small harp is the Ravenna 26. It is also one of the harps I am interested in.

There is a lot of music for harps with 26 strings. You may want to have a look at:
