We need more people in the world thinking like this about instrument design, the harp can shred in ways nothing else can, in the ancient world they thought the opposite of the harp that they do today, it was a warriors instrument, in many cultures only men played it.(Egypt was an exception) Harps are shown in Assyrian and Babylonian base reliefs harnessed to bearded men who are playing them in victory marches after battles, when the Israelite's were captured and taken to Babylon they "hung up their harps by the river", that suggests no more victory marcheswilliam wesleynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363139936234756686.post-5743327231523402532011-08-14T12:21:55.167-07:002011-08-14T12:21:55.167-07:00Hi Bertha
I just translated your post to this in...Hi Bertha<br /><br /> I just translated your post to this in English : "very interesting. I'm harpist, live in mexico and want to buy a harp electric with midi system, I am very interested in this model (which bought its Dutch client) is possible? how much does it cost? I'm going to go to the State of California in September, they have a store or distributor in that State? Thank you"<br /><br />I will reply in English. This specific harp is a custom experimental harp with the pitch bend levers. It is electric, with the steel strings and magnetic pickups. I do also build midi harps. This harp is not midi equipped. You can go to my website, www.mountainglenharps.com, to see the information on my midi harps. Click on the electric harp page for that info. the prices have actually just gone up, due to the cost of having the midi board made, Just email me for the current price information.<br /><br /> I do not sell my harps in stores, as all of them are custom design ed built, one at a time.<br /><br />Thank you for your interest in my harps !:-)<br /><br />GlennGlenn J.
