Re: [Harp-L] If the chords are F#m, E, and D...which harp?

[Winslow Yerxa <winslowyerxa@xxxxxxxxx>]

The notes of the chords add up to an A major scale. However, thinking of that melody (after, what 40 years?) something tells me that it would work in second position (sorry, Buddha) on a D harp, as I don't think G# occurs anywhere in the melody.

Try both, see wich sounds cooler and more comfortable.
