Play the celtic lap harp

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve wanted to play the harp. But I’ve always been told (it’s too expensive, too hard to play, too big to carry around, etc.). I’ve never let go of that dream just put it in the back of my mind. Well I was in Maine last year with my family on a trip and we stopped by this wonderful Celtic folk music store (I love Celtic music) and I saw my first Celtic lap harps up close and personal. They were all hand carved and small and beautiful and the lady let me play around on them. She told me that if I knew piano (which I do) that I would be able to pick up the chords easily. She also told me that even though I don’t live up there that I could order from this store and have the harp shipped to GA. I fell in love and it is my goal now. I can’t afford one now, but I will save up as soon as I get my career started and start saving some money for it. It won’t be too far in the future I believe…
