Spiraling Up on Harp Strings



Did you know that God likes to create things in circles? He made the
solar systems, the planets, the stars round...He made the color wheel
and music full of circles: the circle of fifths, music notes (CDEFGAB
repeated over and over), and choruses.... Sometimes if you find yourself
going around and around it's not because you're in the same place but
because you're climbing around the mountain and the view just looks the
same again. Be encouraged and empowered that you can accomplish all
things in Jesus (Philippians 4:13).



When I play the harp, I like to think of the notes as an upward spiral, taking me into
realms of light and song. In this weeks video I am giving you some more
practical tips, but I encourage you to start imagining sounds that you
would like to play with those fast fingers of yours! Have fun harpers!

How to Play the Harp




If you've ever found yourself thinking, "gosh I'd love to pick up an instrument, but I don't have the money to go to lessons", or "gosh I'd love to learn the harp....but who would I learn from" then here is the solution. I am here to blog about and show you how to play this marvelous instrument, lose your fear, and get out there to share your sound with the world. In this first video, I explain how to hold the harp, correct finger technique, and a great way to approach the harp with absolutely NO experience. I believe in you, so let's go, go, go and make your dreams happen! Feel free to comment with your personal love for the instrument or with questions!
