## Description

Teach Yourself to Play the Folk Harp, 30th Anniversary Edition - Folk Harp Music Book for Adults and Kids - Folk Harp Sheet Music Songbook with Step-by-Step Lessons : Sylvia Woods: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Really clear book for beginning the harp - I bought three beginner harp books. Harpsicle Harp Method (Darlene Walton) this one came with the Derwent harp which I bought to learn to play. Basic Harp for Beginners (Laurie Riley) and this one, Teach Yourself to Play the Folk Harp (Sylvia Woods). This one is by far the best. Sylvia gets you playing tunes straight away (ok there are some exercises but you can see the point of them because what they show you is useful in the tunes). She has a nice conversational style and is reassuring and encouraging. She starts you off with the treble clef and one hand at a time. Then you do two hands but both with the treble clef and then later in the book you add in the bass clef. Genius. The instructions are clear and the tunes are ones you probably know. Astonishingly the book has been around since 1978 but still seems fresh and very clear. The book is spiral bound which means it lies flat. The Harpsicle book (Darlene Walton) quickly becomes confusing, you start straight in with both treble and bass clef. At first fingering and note names are indicated and then bracketing but then these are phased out. It does come with a DVD which is quite useful and it is quite 'cheerful'. The Basic Harp for Beginners (Laurie Riley) is awful. I wrote another review about it. Didn't suit me at all. I would recommend Teach Yourself to Play the Folk Harp by Sylvia Woods very highly.
Review: Good book for beginners - Personally I dont understand the negative reviews, yes its in black and white and spiral bound and the pictures are old, but the content is as relevant today as it was then, ideal book for the complete beginner with simple exercises and tunes to learn, I highly recommend this for an absolute beginner
