Who better to showcase the possibilities of the harp, an often misunderstood instrument, than harpists themselves? All of the composers on this CD were, and in the case of Lynne Palmer, are, fabulous harpists themselves. Spanning 3 centuries, this music shows how innovation in composition and technology changed the harp’s place in society and how the composers of the day managed to meet these demands. Stellar harpist and teacher Judy Loman brings out the best in these compositions by Parry, Alvars, Thomas, Hasselmans, Renié, Salzedo, Tournier, and Palmer.
