| | Harp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The harp is used sparingly in most classical music, usually for special effects such as the glissando, arpeggios, and bisbigliando. | | | While the harp is mentioned in most translations of the Bible, King David being the most prominent musician, the Biblical "harp" was actually a kinnor, a type of lyre with 10 strings. | | | The pedal harp, or concert harp, is large and technically modern, designed for classical music and played solo, as part of chamber ensembles, and in symphony orchestras. |

| | New Georgia Encyclopedia: The Sacred Harp |
| | The tunes of The Sacred Harp do have a melody part, the tenor, but it coexists with three other parts in no way merely supportive of a dominant melody. | | | But regardless of location or voices, Sacred Harp sounds unlike academic choral singing or gospel singing in which melody dominates and harmony embellishes and supports it. | | | Nor did the coming of radio and records or such newer styles of sacred music as gospel. |

| | Types of Harps - Harp Information Page by Harpist Kari Gardner |
| | But what if you want to play more harmonically complex music (music with lots of changes in what notes are sharp, natural or flat) such as more recent classical music (coming out of the Romantic period, the Impressionists, 20th-century music--think Debussy, Stravinsky) or other forms of contemporary music--jazz, pop, musical theater. | | | There are a lot of instruments which have not stayed in use to the present day, instruments that most people have never heard of because they were too limited to keep up with the changing music and what people wanted to be able to play on them. | | | You can make arrangements of some of this music that will work on the lever harp, but it won't necessarily have feel of the original composition because much of the harmonic complexity will have to be cut out. |
