HARP
Harp instruction is offered using a Lever Harp or a Pedal Harp. Cary School of Music
owns and provides lessons on both of these instruments. Students ages 8 through adult are welcome to enroll anytime in private lessons and ensembles. Starter instruments (harpsicles or lap harps) are available for rent or purchase and no previous music study is required to begin lessons. Students are invited to participate in a recital each semester, including a special Christmas concert by the ensemble.
