François Joseph Naderman (1773-1835) was the first professor of harp at the Paris Conservatory. His father was a harpmaker, and François Joseph was taught by a friend of the family, Johann Baptiste Krumpholz. By this time in history, the newly modeled double-action harp fashioned by Sebastien Erard had been recognized and favored by many experts. However, Naderman preferred to write for and play on the single-action harp exclusively. A true virtuoso, Naderman even performed concerts for Napoleon!
