some good harp music?

Sign in to disble this ad
you know, i've been watching this america's got talent, starring regis and the Hoff, and the only good thing to come out of it so far imo is that girl who played the harp...anyways, that got me interested...does anyone know some good harpists (outside of harpo )?

I am kinda interested more in celtic harp music, but anything good is cool

Check out Joanna Newsom. She does some pretty cool stuff with a harp. She also has a, hmm, polarizing voice, so your mileage may vary in that respect. I guess she has a myspace page (myspace.com/joannanewsom) which may or may not be legitimate.

Debussy and Ravel wrote some great music for Harp and small orchestras - well worth looking out for!

I have a very nice CD which features French Harp music :

I was confused. I thought by "harp" you meant a harmonica as in blues and jazz.
