It all started back in the spring when we went to Bentley's first cello recital. One of the girls there played a duet with her twin - one plays cello, one plays harp. It was quite delightful. And Viva leaned over and told me "that was so pretty, what is it?"
And I was captivated too. So I tracked down the teacher of the girl who we heard play, as the girl played well so obviously has a good teacher. And then I learned all about types of harps (pedal harps, lever harps, lap harps, concert harps, celtic harps, troubadour harps, harps with different #s of strings.... !)
It's all quite fascinating, actually. And now we own a harp and Viva has started lessons!
A celtic harp - big, but not huge:
(A concert harp - they are big!)
