  • I finally hit the 1 year milestone since I begun my journey to learn the Harp. It's never too late for anyone to start their own journey. The video is my harp practicing progress throughout the year from Oct 2021 - Oct 2022 all about practice, nothing perfect lol.

    I'm a self-taught adult harp beginner working on my harp adventure. Hopefully giving inspiration to all other new beginners learning new instruments is never too late for everyone.

    Amazing! Thanks for sharing your journey with us. I've been with Christy for over 4 years and am nowhere near as accomplished as you. There was a lack of dedication on my part, but sharing your video is just the kick in the pants I needed. Thanks again, you keep on harping on 🥰

    I haven't started yet because I have 4 broken strings and my Tuning Key is missing. I'm going to call Lyon & Healey this week to see what I can do about all that, but our local music store couldn't help me when I took it there years ago, so I don't know what will happen. I just hope that I can play as well when I've been at it for a year. A secret part me thinks I'm nuts for trying this, but I really want to see how I do. Wish me luck!!!! Thanks for sharing your music. It's beautiful.

      Thank you.
      Don't worry about feeling apprehensive when starting something new like learning to play the harp. Every musician had to start somewhere, and it's never too late to start. You're taking the right steps by reaching out to Lyon & Healy to address the issues with your harp. Learning a musical instrument is a rewarding experience😀, so don't be too hard on yourself, have fun, and enjoy the process! Looking forward to seeing you share the progress!Good luck! ☺

      I realize this post is 8 months old, but if you can't find a tuning key a drum key often works.

      Thanks. @@Aaron-xq6hv I took a chance on a key that fits an autoharp, and it works!!! Yeaaa!!!! I wouldn't order strings without a tuning key. Still need to do that part, but I have to learn what brand this harp is. I've been told it's a Roosenbeck (I don't know how it's spelled, and Spellcheck won't help) with mising hardware, so II need to know more about it. It's a 19-string harp 30" tall, but I've tried ordering, and I'm just going to need help from a store. Maybe a video conference? Thanks for your response.

      I don't see my reply, but if you see it, I didn't mean a vid conference with you......I meant with a store that handles supplies specifically for MY harp. Sorry 'bout that.@@Aaron-xq6hv

      I honestly think that and piano provides a very soft learning curve when it comes to the harp.

      No, I haven’t get a chance to find a teacher in person. Only source I used is Christy Lyn and other online sources .but I do have some piano experience😄

      I’ve heard practicing for long periods of time can actually be detrimental to your progress rather than beneficial! Most recommend 30 mins a day, a few times each day spaced out between your other daily things

      Glad that this video inspired you. ☺️Are you interested in any of harp yet? I bought my first harp on Amazon and noticed it was not I really liked. I end up buying another one after few months. The first one cost $1600(36 strings)and the larger one cost $5700(40strings) The larger one( Lyon and Healy) is made to order. I waited about 10 months to receive my harp. At the meanwhile I used rental harp (34 strings)from local harp professionals and it cost $90 per month. Feel free to join learning the harp group and post a question on Facebook. There are lots folks willing to help you out 😊
