RE: [Harp-L] B Minor harp songs

Hi guys,

I got the Lee Oskar Bm(N) Natural Minor.  What is a dorian scale?  Is that
why it sounds like medeval or old world music?  I like Greensleeves on it. 

Thanks.

If I understand your tuning correctly, it would create an E dorian
scale from 4 to 7 blow, not harmonic minor.  Also, yes the Lee Oskar
natural minor is labelled by the cross harp key, but the Lee Oskar
Harmonic minor is tuned to the straight harp key.  The original poster
did not define which type of Lee Oskar minor harp he purchased.
