Pedal harps can cost $70,000 - far more than lever harps, which cost $2,000 to $9,000. At first glance, a pedal harp looks like a simple frame with a row of strings. But there are complicated mechanisms inside that musicians use to change notes. At Camac Harps in France, every harp is carved and assembled by hand. For musicians like Grammy-nominated artist Brandee Younger, the pedal harp resonates with sonic potential.

I wish I could afford a Salzedo model, only the price jumped from £38k the other year to £55k, although I suspect they may cost even more now. I don't know any UK harpists that have a Salzedo - maybe the Art Deco look doesn't appeal to UK tastes. My teacher has a Style 23 gold while I once had a Salvi Arianna. Interesting to see the Camac's columns have a carbon fibre core and the wood is purely decorative outer cladding on them.

This is so real. Sometimes I ask myself that too. During my early twenties I wanted to study and master the harp, it was my dream. It still is. But after studying for two years I decided to quit. I had to do it. The pain of not learning it was infinitely more tolerable than the fact of being able to master it knowing that I could never really play it. I just couldn't afford it.
@TeamklausyStudios
@TeamklausyStudios Месяц назад
@@De-sonrosados-dedos This comment really saddens me! I couldn't honestly think of a day without playing my harp! Certainly, if you can return to the harp, I think you should! I'd been learning for a couple of years on a basic no-lever Harpsicle Harp and suddenly realised that it would be truly difficult to proceed into more intermediate music without levers. That's when I ran the issue pass my mother and she actually managed to find an organisation that donated instruments to musicians who actually had a harp (apparently, harps, even beginner ones, are very rare to come across for donation)! I'd been blessed to inherit someone's old harp with levers and it's really made a difference. All I'm saying is certainly don't give up, there are people out there who may have something to donate, there are cheaper harps they may be able to give you the sound and feel you desire without the cost (for example if you enjoy pedal harps the Lyon & Healy Prelude 40 is a great alternative). Please go back to your dream! Thanks you reading my long ass message!

Lyon and Healy was mentioned. It is probably the only American harp maker. I am 77 and when I was a child they had a large multi-story building in downtown Chicago selling all sorts of instruments, accessories, sheet music and had many instructors who worked there. Sadly the building is no longer a music business and all they now do is to make harps somewhere.

Actually Lyon & Healy’s was still in the same building on Ogden and W. Lake St. they were in the process of moving buildings to a newer location but construction delays set it back. I was an employee of them last year and the plan was to move everyone except the woodworking departments in by the end of 2023. Don’t know if the move has happened or not yet, but it was sad leaving that historic building behind.

My orchestra teacher in middle school was principally a harpist. Some composers never wrote any parts of the harp (Beethoven for one), so when she wasn't playing the harp, she would play the viola. Once a year, she would cart her gigantic harp to the school to play it for us. It's difficult to comprehend the size and complexity of a harp until you've seen one in person. But clearly that day was a memorable one for us!

Fascinating. The concert harp was invented at about the same time as the piano, but the latter became so popular that its manufacture was industrialised, making it an order of magnitude cheaper for a run-of-the-mill instrument, while the pedal harp stayed artisanal because of less demand. Nowadays I think you could slash costs by replacing the typewriter-style technology of the pedals by electromechanical controls, and leaving out all the lovely decoration. You'd still have to pay for the spruce soundboard, but they said that was a comparitively small part of the cost. You could go further, and replace the wood by carbon fibre... Or you could go the whole hog and replace the soundboard by pickups, like an electric guitar! I bet Brandee Younger would love it. She could add distortion pedals to her sharp/flat pedals 😊

Pianos are the one thing that are hard to get rid of, so many offered all over the place for free for the hauling because they are very heavy and no one wants to pay piano movers $1,000 and more to move them, it's even worse if they have to go up/down stairs!

“Harps are probably most known for glissando. But we are the only ones that can do that” trombone? piano? violin? viola? cello? double bass? Most instruments can do a glissando of some sorts, if not a smooth one.

Whenever I see someone playing music with the harp, especially in videos, I wonder what the pedals were for, like what are its purposes?... Thanks to this video, now I know...😊😊❤❤

Man the music reminds me so much of Mondstadt in Genshin Impact, wished I could get the source of the music

Outside of the Glissando most people wouldn't notice a Harp on a Song!

Can you also do an episode about pipe organs? One company in the Netherlands, Orgelmakerij Reil, produces custom organs for various churches in Europe

The tone from the Harp reminds me of Genshin Impact. Just like in the log-in screen.

And after all that some rando you haven't spoken to since high school will message you and ask you to play their wedding for free 😆 Kidding aside, even a lever harp is a serious investment. But the harp is such a wonderful instrument and as Brandee Younger says, deserves a place in all kinds of music, not just the orchestra.
