Books and Sheet Music Recommendations
I've searched for the very best books, sheet music and DVDs to help you learn to play the harp
Method Books and DVDs
Build a great foundation so that technique will never hold you back!
The books are written for self-teaching harpists, so they are easy to understand and contain everything you need to know. They have great photographs, really helpful explanations of each element of hand position and technique, and lovely pieces. I recommend this book highly!
By the end of Level 2 you'll have the skills to play advanced beginner or early intermediate harp music. There are more gaps in the progression, so I don't recommend it quite as highly as the Level 1 book.
The DVD accompanies the books Level 1 & 2. A helpful supplement to the books. The DVD doesn't stand alone - you definitely need the books too. Pamela is a gentle and helpful teacher.I recommend the DVD highly because you actually are able to see and copy what Pamela is doing.
