Reviews
"The 2007 revision of Harps and Harpists by Roslyn Rensch is the fourth in its line by the author. Even cursory glances at the precursors of the present work show her lifetime odyssey and love affair with her instrument, and make interesting comparisons with one another." --Notes, Reviews of the first edition: "Harpists, harp fanciers and organologists will need no encouragement to devour Roslyn Rensch's third book on this subject . . . " Times Literary Supplement " . . . this is a book that should be in every music collection . . . " Notes "A fine achievement, recommended for all libraries." Choice "This is a must for harp performers, students, and enthusiasts who wish to have a thoroughly researched historical survey in one convenient volume." Musick
