Tree of Strings

Keith Sanger & Alison Kinnaird
Tree of Strings (Crann nan Teud)
Kinmor Music, Scotland, 1992
An excellent history of harps in Scotland from earliest times right up to the modern revival. It covers all areas including repertory, mythology, harp morphology and social context, using much detail taken from unpublished historical documents. It also gives useful facsimiles of some tunes from otherwise unpublished manuscripts.
