Wed, 12 Oct 2011 05:18:48 +0000 http://www.harpsurgery.com/?p=4403#comment-46848 I've been playing harp for around 25 years and in the beginning, I was asked to play more by the other musos. I didn't because I was limited at the time to what I could add. But now, with all the experience I have, I know precisely what is being said about knowing when to shut up. There are even some numbers where I choose to not play at all as it just seems inappropriate. As you say, sometimes less is more. By the way, I'm loving learning more about 1st position. I play 2nd, 3rd and 5th and have only just touched on 1st. I’ve been playing harp for around 25 years and in the beginning, I was asked to play more by the other musos.
