Harp
The harp is prized as much for its expressive range and gentle textures as for its elegant appearance. The instrument is heard not only in the performance of classical music, but has increasingly become an integral part of Celtic and folk music performances in Canada and elsewhere. Canadian orchestras frequently feature the harp, and Canadian composers have written numerous new works for harp.
