Re: [Harp-L] Re: FLAT!! But Maybe Not??

That's a very interesting thought, Mad Dog, especially since the 
symptom was that my harp sounded flat and the band sharp relative to 
me.  I often do hold my harp in my hand and blow through it a few times 
before I play, and may have overlooked this on the last two occasions.  
My sound checks will henceforth be sound and pitch checks!
