Re: [Harp-L] Chord Harp



The Chord layout to me looks like it is meant to play tunes from another era. All of those diminished an augmented chords are from
a song writing era of years gone by. Even though it says 48 chords playing notes from upper and lower holes of adjacent chords
could give you more chords.. I don't know of any method books on the chord but one would be a big help.

Subject: [Harp-L] Chord Harp

My harp bag includes all the diatonic keys and three respectable chromatics.
Besides playing Polkas, is there any good reason to add a chord harp to my
collection, and if so, which one might be recommended? Will working with a
chord harp improve my diatonic and chromatic, blues, jazz and classical
playing?  Can I entertain myself by having one? (Or would I bore myself to
death?) What would be a moderate priced chord harp to purchase. I hope these
questions don't sound too stupid!
