With David Lane and the Musician Toolkit
If you’re not a harpist and wanting to compose, the harp can be a mysterious instrument. It can play all of the notes of a chromatic scale, but only 7 in a time across all octaves. It has a similar range to the piano with a similar 2-staff system, but the harpist uses fewer fingers and approaches the notes from a different angles. There are pedal diagrams, pedal change instructions, special effects in tones, and so many other things to consider. If you’ve ever thought about composing or arranging for the harp, it’s very helpful to have someone like Danielle Kuntz to help! Danielle is a harpist with a passion for new music, and her business is to help composers balance creativity with practicality to write great harp music with clarity.
