Lesson
n°17: Harmonics
|
|
 |
Right hand:
position the hand folded as showed on the photo, the thumb leaning against
the same string as the forefinger joint.
|
|
 |
Release the whole
hand in the same time in a swift movement towards the
outside. The harmonic plays the same note at a higher octave, with a
soft and stiffled sound. It only exists on a certain height of the string,
depending on your harp, usually in the first third of the string (from
the top). That's up to you to find it!
|
 |
 |
For the left hand, the position is very different: on the same string, you lean both the thumb and the hand side in the middle. |
|
 |
As for the right hand, you release everything in a swift movement towards the outside. The harmonic also exists only at a particuler height on the string. (Usually, the lower the note, the higher is the harmonic). |

...and when you
release the hand. The harmonic is a complex technique, you'd better
ask a teacher to teach you first.
