Plucked strings/Harp Sheet Music

The instrument of Greek Gods, the favorite of Italians and the national symbol of Ireland – meet the Harp, one of the oldest orchestra members and music instruments in general. It began inspiring peoples as early as 2500 years B.C., first appearing in ancient paintings and then piercing into medieval manuscripts and sacral carvings and finally to the orchestra. It's surprising that today's major manufacturer of harps is Chicago and not Ireland, where these instruments have been so highly valued and enamored with since early times. Long time ago, harpists were judged so strictly that their fingernails could be broken if the listener didn't enjoy their performing enough. And girls used playing harp as the most favorable way to highlight the beauty of their hands and the grace of their arms. And today? Besides the yearly appearance on the St. Valentine's Day on many Cupid amulets, harp mostly holds to the folk genre or possibly in chamber music. However, you could easily hear it in pop songs by The Beatles, Björk or Cher. The most popular sheet music for harp – about 3092 music scores – are in store at MusicaNeo.
