Led Zeppelin....On a Celtic Harp

If you thought rock music couldn't be played on a Celtic harp, think again. Yes, it can be done! (with a lot of lever flipping with the left hand). Anne Roos' rendition of "Stairway to Heaven" was caught on Sacramento's KMAX-TV, Channel 31 on their December 13, 2008 broadcast of the Good Day Sacramento show. Hosts Cody Stark and Kelly Chapman interview Anne on this entertaining morning show, and then she goes into playing the Led Zeppelin classic. "Stairway to Heaven" will be included on Anne's next CD release. Find out more about Anne Roos at http://www.celticharpmusic.com

What is the difference between a Harp, and a Celtic Harp...is there?

[celticharpmusic]

@Jennalovesrainbows Hi Jenna! A Celtic harp is just one type of harp. There are many harps--Celtic harp, concert harp, Paraguayan harp--just to name a few.

@Jennalovesrainbows A celtic harp harp is smaller than a the classical harp used in symphonic orchestra. Usually, it has metal strings (but this one doesn't) instead of guts strings. It has less strings. No pedals. On classical harps, pedals allow flats and sharps while playing. Celtic harp may have switches on the upper part to do it once before playing. The upper part is less curved, and the front has an arc shape, instead of a straight column (this is the main difference easily noticable).
