The folk harp or Celtic harp is small to medium-sized and usually designed for traditional music; it can be played solo or with small groups. It is prominent in Welsh, Breton, Irish, Scottish and other Celtic cultures within traditional or folk music and as a social and political symbol. The renowned Irish harpist and superb vocalist Mary Strachan provides fine examples of what can be accomplished on this delicate instrument with just sparse accompaniment. Classic recording, newly re-mastered.
