Description

The harp is both the oldest and the newest of instruments.

It has existed in some form in nearly all cultures since man has made music.

The contemporary concert instrument has been known since the mid-19th century.

This work is a compendium of the biographies of many notable harpists of the modern era.

The biographies make clear how these performers shaped the contrasts in style and technique of harp playing that have developed over the past 150 years, as cultural, social, and psychological forces influenced individual performance.

In addition to the biographical information, the A-Z entries include critical reviews, discographies, and selected bibliographies where possible.

New material from the former Soviet states is included.
