I suffer from MABLE (Music Acquisition Beyond Life Expectancy). Since books are such a bargain, I tend to buy anything that looks interesting.
Exercises:
Grossi Method for Harp (English edition)
Harp Exercises for Agility and Speed, Deborah Friou
Discussion:
On Playing the Harp, Yolanda Kondonassis
Music Theory and Arranging Techniques for Folk Harps, Sylvia Woods
Methods:
Play the Harp Beautifully, Levels 1 & 2, Pamela Bruner
Teach Yourself to Play the Folk Harp, Sylvia Woods
You Can Teach Yourself Lever Harp, Laurie Riley & Beth Kolle
Folk Harp for the Young Beginner, Star Edwards
Sight Reading:
First Harp Book, Betty Paret
Old Tunes for New Harpists, Mildred Dilling
Fun from the First, Vol. 1 & 2, Samuel Milligan
Suzuki Harp School, Vol. 1
On the bright side, at least MABLE is cheaper than HAS (Harp Acquisition Syndrome). So far, I only have one harp.
