Lever Harp

Each string on a lever harp has its own lever which can be moved to raise that string by a semitone. This allows for interesting tonal possibilities (which are not available on the concert harp) as different harmonic areas can exisit in different octaves of the instrument.

Ruth's lever harp is made by Mark Norris in Peebles.
