After years of telling everyone I know that I want a harp I have finally gotten one 🥲
This is the Lyric lever harp from @lyonhealyharps shipped from Chicago! I’ve been playing and composing on it for about two weeks now and am so in love.
I’m torn between a few names- I’m thinking either Metatron, Cassandra, Irene, and Destiny
