Recently, we had a
sailing_harper, and we did all sorts of fun things with her and I enjoyed being a tourist in London once again, and all was Merry And Gay, Hey Nonny Nonny.
sailing_harper is a deeply capable, caring and talented woman. I met her at a weekend seminar I taught at once a long time ago, and mostly through her efforts, we've remained mostly in touch over the past five years or so.
Before she came to visit, we talked about harps (duh) and which ones I had at the house in London and what they were like. I told her the story of how my beloved 24-string Witcher came into my life and mentioned that Jay, while he's a genius and all, has a reputation for overbuilding (ya think?) and understringing, and that my lowest string particularly was a bit thuddy, as were the two or three above that. She asked me a couple of questions, including the length of the string, and I sucked and didn't get the answers back to her until just the week before she came here, and that was that.
( But tell us of the silver string! )
