Queen Mary Harp - Replica Clarsach

Queen Mary replica harp snippet for Jennifer Sims just brought to pitch - undecorated but with much of the wood detailing which I feel is important for this instrument cosmetically. Soundbox hollowed from a single block of willow, cherry harmonic curve and alder forepillar. I have not played harp for sometime now due to breaking my fingernails so please forgive my playing -- I need to practice!!!

Thanks for watching
William
