My pedal harp has 48 strings … that’s a lot of strings! Until recently, I only tuned and played 34 of them (not all 48). I’m not sure why but perhaps it’s because my folk harp that I played for many years at the hospital and hospice bedside had 34 strings; that is what I was accustomed to playing. But this fall, I felt guided to begin tuning all the 48 strings on my pedal harp.
It feels auspicious to tune all the strings – as consciousness increases, all the vibrations of my harp strings comes into perfect pitch, harmony and balance. Ahhhhh…
