Where in the world were you 20 years ago when I bought my Autoharp ????😁😁😁😁 THANK YOU so very much for sharing your knowledge!!!! It is APPRECIATED sooooo much!!!!🎶🎶🎶🎶 From Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
This is an incredibly informative video, I may put this whole series on while I'm working on my art so I can absorb more knowledge. I recently actually had the opportunity to purchase a bowed psaltery on the cheap, which I turned down, a choice I regret. I'm now looking at a vintage autoharp for sale on Craigslist and trying to figure out if I want to go for it or not (and wondering if the guy with the psaltery will pop up again). I love browsing the musical instruments for sale section of the site, even if it is mostly guitars and amps, you sometimes bump into more unusual stuff and trying to figure out what some of those instruments are is what brought me here, to this video!
I'm so happy I found this channel. I love the sound of the autoharp. But I'm an appreciative spectator rather than a performer. This is a great intro for me to understand this beautiful instrument.
Well this series is already shot, but we could do an interview via zoom, and if you had any video and stills that we could dub in over our conversation that would provide a visual element that UA-cam would need. If you are gsme we could talk about that!
So it’s called an ‘autoHARP’ but it’s not a harp? Yet a harp is also an instrument where you have tuned strings which are plucked or strummed. So if what you say is true they need to remove the word HARP.
A concise course on the core concepts of Chorded chordophones.

Hi Hal, Do you perform any autoharp repairs?
Yes! Daigle Autoharps... autoharp.com
Very interesting! I look forward to the coming Weeks' videos.
This is so cool! Can't wait for further videos to see more autoharp cousins. Love hearing about the history behind this awesome instrument :)
Are we going to let accordions be chordo-phones? The child of a chordo-phone and an aerophone?
Thanks for this video. I learned so much and want to nerd out more about historical instruments 🤩
Thank you..
Great video on the history of these insturments.
So helpful! Thank you. Why anyone disliked this video is beyond me. New sub :).
Nice job of playing simple gifts on the bowed psaltery.
Thanks for this helpful perspective on music making in our modern, industrial society. I am sharing it with friends who have no interest in autoharp.
That first one is the type I recently bought
Very good, as always... we keep learning things everytime
And I like your new hair style.
Hi Hal, you’re welcome to include Running with Zithers in any of you future videos on chord zithers 🎵

Percussion instruments go back further than all the other classes combined.

You are correct. The original german product was called volkszither -- folk zither or people's zither.
