Product Description

The Waring harp is a legitimate musical instrument, made from quality materials resistant to heat, cold, and dampness. Treat it like any musical instrument and it will last many years. The string materials and spacing meet modern standards. It is easy to tune to any scale or mode and costs a fraction of the price of equivalent wood harps. Perfect for both child and adult beginners; practical for harp classes and workshops; useful in music education pedagogy; and well-suited for music therapy, hospice, and the healing arts. Dimensions: 26.5" tall; 4.5" across at the top; 10.5" across at the bottom; 19" from the front (top) of the forepillar to the back (top) of the soundbox. A note on harp tuning: new harps will continually drop in pitch for a while. It takes time for the string knot to fully tighten and for the strings to fully stretch. You will get more adept at tuning the harp the more you do it
