Base Camp is the private online community for Harp Quest students and parents. No ads, no secret data storing, just harp stuff. You’ll find free challenges, videos, practice tips, and more, plus you’ll be able to connect with other young harpists just like you. And parents - you’ll find tips for harp parents too! It’s free and it’s just for youth and their parents.
Play your warm up or an exercise one through. Then push three levers or pedals any direction you like and play it again. Push three more and play it once more. How different does it sound from when you started? To complete the challenge, post which accidentals you ended up with, which notes were flat, sharp or natural. We want to know!
Thursday Theory: The Chromatic Scale

Weekend Warmup:
Check out Base Camp on Saturday for a weekly video warmup. It’s a great way to tune up your technique!
