Dusty Strings Harp Comparison by Sylvia Woods

[@pgm3]

By the by, guys, Ms Woods literally wrote the book on Celtic harp and is one of the most respected harpers around. Aside from a quite utilitarian video here, you also get to hear her play Carolan, which is just about as good a musical experience as you need on KZbin. These are very nice harps, too. A fine demo!

Thanks so much for all your kind words. I really appreciate it! - Sylvia

She is also a nice and friendly person I have talked with her a few times on the phone.

I have been looking at the Crescendo 34. After hearing the other harps all together like this, that confirms my choice. Thank you for doing this video. That was helpful.

I have the Dusty Strings Ravenna 34 and I love it. I've only had her for less than 2 weeks and find I can't leave her alone for long.

The elegant and beautiful sound calms the heart and relaxes in it

I bought a crescendo 34 Sylvia Woods a month ago and it's a great sounding harp . Thanks Sylvia!

[@GorefeastDrummer]

Buying a Crescendo becuase I became emotional at how gorgeous it sounded. beautiful demo, thank you

[@harpcenter]

Thank you so much. I am looking for my "forever" harp. I'm not young and will never be a performer (except in the folk club!) but I do want a harp that will sound beautiful...mostly for Carolan, so this video is spot on for me. The Crescendo is right at the top of what I can afford, but having listened to this, I am clear that it's worth it.
