      You should try the harp, starting with simple tunes on the Celtic harp is not that difficult and I know many adult beginners.
      Check out Shelley's page harpwales.com/workshops-for-non-harpists/
      She's in Wales, but here are harpists offering similar "Try he harp for a day-workshops" around the globe!
