Which Lyon & Healy Harp Is Right for You?
For concert and orchestral playing, the 47-string professional pedal harps or the new-generation Model 160 stand out; for those looking for a simpler and more economical pedal harp, there is the Chicago Series. For a showpiece, gold-leaf instrument, look at the premium harps.
For beginners and those who want a portable instrument, lever harps are suitable; for those who want to play on stage with an amplifier, electro-acoustic harps are designed.
