Who can play the lap harp?
Almost anyone can play it. Generally, children can start as young as 3 or 4 although it is dependent on their interest and finger dexterity. By 5 to 6 most children are able to play easily. Although children play the lap harp, we find more adults thrilled to finally have an instrument they don’t have to take lessons in order to play. Even adults with the ability to play more complex instruments find enjoyment with the simplicity of the lap harp.
