Re: [Harp-L] What's a double Stop??

[Special20 <special20harp@xxxxxxxxx>]

As far as I know, the term "double stop" comes from violin or fiddle
playing...  bowing two strings at the same time to achieve a duo-chord.  In
harp it means a two-hole tone, such as drawing holes 3 and 4 at the same
time.

But I could be wrong...
