We had no music background, only a burning desire to play music. After trying several different instruments with no success, our deep yearning led us to harps.<br /><br />We called a harp teacher and asked, Are we too old? Does it matter that we can't read music? Age and lack of rudimentary skills were not deterrents. Thus began our adventure with our harps.<br /><br />We have four CDs available.<br />Our CDs are available by PayPal for $7<br />(includes postage and handling)<br />We ship only within the United States.<br />Click the PayPal button to order.<br /><br />Look for us at PayPal as<br />twoharps@gmail.com<br />Please specify which CD you want.<br /><br /><form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" method="post"><input name="bn" type="hidden" value="PP-BuyNowBF" /><br /><input alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!" border="0" name="submit" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but01.gif" type="image" /><br /></form><br />Individual tracks can be downloaded at iTunes, etc.<br /><br /><br />See a Two Harps Video<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/TwoHarps">http://www.youtube.com/user/TwoHarps</a><br /><br />CDs are also available at <a href="http://cdbaby.com/all/ourmusic" target="_blank">http://cdbaby.com/all/ourmusic</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: 180%;">Two Harps Hymns<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Traditional and unusual hymns</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 180%;">Two Harps Harpspell<br /></span><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Meditative original pieces</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: 180%;">Two Harps Harpsounds</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Traditional melodies</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-family: georgia; font-size: 180%;">Two Harps Christmas</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">Traditional carols</span><br /></div><br /><br />HYMNS<br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1DqbR2Mzo7Y/R4eRwDaV7tI/AAAAAAAAAAM/JxS9_z4Ai_s/s1600-h/harp+hymn+cover+w+text+for+winkflash+resized+20+contrast.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5154248553284366034" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_1DqbR2Mzo7Y/R4eRwDaV7tI/AAAAAAAAAAM/JxS9_z4Ai_s/s320/harp+hymn+cover+w+text+for+winkflash+resized+20+contrast.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" /></a>Twenty-two hymns recorded on two Lyon-Healy Troubadour harps, Dusty Strings Ravenna 34 harps, and Harps of Praise Celestial harps.<br /><br />Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving;<br />make music to our God on the harp.<br /><br />Psalm 147:7<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 130%;">Joyful Joyful We Adore Thee<br />Promised Land<br />Blest Be the Tie that Binds<br />Now Unto Jehovah<br />Holy Holy Holy<br />All Creatures of our God and King<br />Fairest Lord Jesus<br />Wayfaring Stranger<br />Be Thou My Vision<br />O God our Help in Ages Past<br />Jerusalem<br />The God of Abraham Praise<br />Glory Be to God the Father<br />Sweet Hour of Prayer<br />Go Down Moses<br />In the Sweet By and By<br />Hold On<br />For the Beauty of the Earth<br />O the Deep Deep Love of Jesus<br />Water of Life<br />Revive Us Again<br />Amazing Grace</span></span><br /><br /><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">------------------------------------------------------<br />------------------------------------------------------<br /></div>HARPSPELL<br /><a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7901/700/1600/front%20final.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7901/700/320/front%20final.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" /></a><br /><br />A duo harp performance played on two Medieval style harps.

Christmas carols with beautifully intertwined arrangements, at times dynamic and bold and at times soothing and meditative, performed on Troubadour harps.<br /><br />Perfect music for the holidays!<br /><br />When we began to work on our Christmas repertoire, we were swept away by the deeply beautiful melodies. Several of these traditional Christmas carols date back a few centuries!<br /><br />A few years ago when we were performing for community arts programs, colleges, and club meetings we sold a few thousand Christmas albums. People have told us that our Christmas album is their favorite Christmas music.<br /><br />We are husband and wife harpists who have been performing since 1976. We had no music background, only a fierce desire to play music. After trying several different instruments with no success, our deep yearning led us to a Lyon-Healy Troubadour harp, a medieval style harp.<br /><br />We called a harp teacher and asked if we were too old and did it matter that we could not read music. She said no so we started lessons. Thus began our adventure with our harps.<br /><span style="color: red;"><br /></span><br /><br /><center><span style="color: red;"><br />Away in the Manger<br />Hark the Herald Angels Sing<br />The First Noel<br />Good King Wenceslas<br />O Come O Come Emmanuel<br />It Came Upon the Midnight Clear<br />Coventry Carol<br />Joy to the World<br />We Three Kings of Orient Are<br />We Wish You a Merry Christmas<br />Christmas Bells are Ringing<br />O Little Town of Bethlehem<br />The Twelve Days of Christmas<br />Silent Night<br />O Come All Ye Faithful<br />Ukranian Bell Carol<br />Angels We have Heard on High<br />God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen<br />What Child Is This?
