Jul 7, 2008 - what do the pedals do? are like the ones on a piano?
jubenvi2 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - The pedals allow the harpist to play in various keys by sharping or flatting(Raising or lowering of pitch by tightening or loosening) of strings. The pedals on a piano affect the length of time the note sounds.
flutediva92 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - The pedals raise or lower the pitch of the strings by a semitone, like the black keys on a piano, except there's one pedal for each note and you can depress or raise the pedal to change the pitch of every note with the same letter name -ie the c-pedal affects all the c-strings and so on. Hope this helped :)
ZutroyPeter Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - They sharpen or flatten the strings. The harp is normally tuned to C-flat major, so all the notes are flat.

Jul 7, 2008 - Its a very interesting not-so-little instrument. Not only do you have to pluck the many strings but apparantly there's a pedal system to. It has a nice sound and I would imagine it's not the easiest thing to learn.

canadianeh24 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - how do the pedal systems work on this and why are there so many?
DrAugustusValdes Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - candieneh24,I belive that is how you get a sharp or flat to a certain not... there isn't a B flat string... just a B string... so you need to pedal make a B flatsomeone please correct me if I am wrong I play bass and have no idea what I am doing
Alu10000 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - Each pedal correspond to a note (from A to G) and each pedal can have three position. So each note can be flat, natural or sharp. The A pedal works on all the A(s) of the harp, the B pedal works on all B(s) and so on.
Myrddyn7 Says:
Jul 7, 2008 - Haha, they range from about 7,000 USD for a cheap, Asian made all the way to 50,000+ for those that are gilt and such. That's why I play a lever harp, it only cost 400... haha.
