jim_pThere aren't very many decent pictures of me playing the harp, but I intend to start changing that...
Last week Natick had its first monthly Art Walk, where downtown merchants stay open late and bring in local artists to show off their work. I, being a downtown merchant, participated. Since my shop is a bit off the main drag, I did the pied-piper thing and played the harp outside to draw attention to my place. A local news photographer, who'd visited the shop earlier, came back and snapped this pic, which she shared with me.
Technical note: here I'm playing my small 29-string Pakistani harp... I'd loaned it to a friend, but borrowed it back for the occasion. Even if I *could* move the pedal harp to the shop for things like this, I'm not sure I'd want to. Of course, now I have to start practicing songs that fit on the little harp... I've been spoiled by playing a harp that goes more than one octave below middle C...
