Re: [Harp-L] Re: 7-10

["46long Blake" <46long@xxxxxxxxx>]

I played very little 7-10 (unless I was playing 1st pos.) until I got in to
Adam Gussow - for cross harp single notes - and our friend Jason for those
upper octaves both 2nd and 3rd pos. Totally opened new worlds....fun fun
fun.....love it when that happens...
