Hello,I=B4m new to the list -I play sax,clarinet and flute (and guitar and keys)but I must admit I=B4ve never had much success with the harp- I hope I can learn something here.
Just a comment on the above statement-there is a technique called "poppin=B4the keys" which enables your playing to sound more rhythmic. When I play I only hear the note (I think) but I=B4ll try and listen more carefully next time I=B4m playing.
