Learn more about harp

The harp is a stringed musical instrument with a large triangular frame, and it is known for its graceful, ethereal sound. The instrument has strings that are plucked with the fingers, producing a rich, resonant tone. Harps come in various sizes and types, including concert harps (with a full range of strings, typically 47) and folk harps (which are smaller and often have fewer strings). The strings are tuned to different pitches, and the pitch can be altered using pedals or levers (on concert harps) to change the key of individual notes. The harp is often used in classical music, where it provides both melody and accompaniment, as well as in folk and contemporary music. Playing the harp requires both finger dexterity and an understanding of complex musical theory. Its serene, soothing sound makes it a popular choice in orchestras, solo performances, and various forms of therapeutic music.
