Re: [Harp-L] harp in bluegrass

[Tom Baehr <tombaehr@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I agree. I'm unaware of any major work for diatonic in a classical  
setting, and am willing to be educated on that point. But there are  
dozens of pieces written for chromatic and orchestra and/or piano.  
Either instrument should work in any genre or era, using musical  
judgment and good taste.
