I played in a recorder Quartet in D.C. long ago. I always got the insulting statement, "Isn't that a beginner instrument?" Like the lever harp, if anything is played well, or if the repertoire is sophisticated enough, *nothing* is a beginner instrument. 😛🎶

Yes!! The same is often said about the ukulele too!

Hello! What is a New Music Harpist?

[@daniellekuntz]

I primarily perform newly composed music, instead of traditional classical music composed in the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries
