[Harp-L] harp break in

[james.french@xxxxxxxxx]

I really appreciate the feed back from fellow harp players. I guess I didn't 
make myself clear. I find if I don,t break in or loosen up marine bands slowly 
over a period of time they go bad. I mean some holes produce no sound or an 
off key noise that makes them unsuitable for playing. I cannot get through one 
evening of playing before they go kaput. I think they play the same new or 
broke in its just that they don't last. I anxiously await other musicians 
thoughts on this situation. Thank-you!
