" One of the things that I love the most about the
harmonica is what I will call its transparency, meaning that it will
transmit exactly the emotion and color that you give it. Perhaps that's
ultimately true for all instruments, but players can hide a bit behind
technique in the guitar, fake emotion, fake pain. In my opinion, harps tell
no lies. In a very real way, you are the instrument."

Though I agree with much of the post, I disagree here.
Some harp players do hide behind technique, fake emotion, fake pain.
