Classic Cantabile H-29 WN Celtic Harp 29 strings

The Vast, Nordic World in Your Own Living Room!

For all fans of Celtic (and naturally other) music, the 29-string Celtic Harp from Classic Cantabile offers feel-good sound for everyone.

Typical Design

Characteristic of the Celtic harp is the typically curved shape of the column, as also found on the Irish coat of arms. The hook harp made of walnut has a range of 4 octaves (c - c4).

Tuning

The 29 strings are tuned diatonically in E-flat major, with blue and red strings indicating the positions of the notes C and F. By flipping up the respective hooks, the harp can quickly be retuned to another key, allowing you to play very flexibly with others. For initial attempts and easier understanding, a C tuning is also possible. The two tuning keys are used to tune the instrument: the square key is applied to the tuning pegs, while the hex key is used for the fine tuners on the opposite side.

Lever Mechanism

The special mechanism of this harp makes it a versatile companion in various keys. Each individual string is equipped with a half-step lever, which when engaged raises the pitch of the respective string by a semitone. This way, you are prepared for every sharp key with just a few simple moves.

To avoid transport damage, the harp is shipped with levers flipped up. Therefore, all mechanisms are first folded down so that all strings can vibrate freely. In this state, the harp is tuned to C major, and it is completely normal for the strings to require regular retuning during the first weeks. Once the strings have stretched sufficiently, the tuning holds much longer.

Includes Bag

What would a travel instrument be without the necessary carrying case? The softly padded bag not only offers your instrument sufficient protection from dust and scratches, but the outer pocket even provides enough space for the two tuning keys and additional accessories.

Simply heavenly!
