En 40-strenget hekkharpe som dekker hele spekteret av standard hekkharpe-repertoar, med Loveland-spaker på alle strenger og karakteristisk Lyon & Healy klarhet og projeksjon.
The Lyon & Healy Prelude 40 functions less like a traditional folk instrument and more like a 'pedal harp without the pedals.' For serious students aiming for the concert stage, this is a premier training tool. The Sitka Spruce soundboard delivers that signature Lyon & Healy clarity"crystalline trebles paired with a surprisingly resonant, authoritative bass that avoids the 'tubby' sound found in lesser lever harps.
What sets the Prelude apart is its 40-string range (E1 to A6). This extra reach is a game-changer for advanced repertoire that frequently outgrows standard 34-string models. The string tension and spacing are intentionally high, mimicking a concert grand. While this is perfect for building the hand strength necessary for a professional career, hobbyists transitioning from lighter Celtic harps may find the action initially demanding.
The craftsmanship is quintessential Chicago-built quality, featuring precise lever action and a robust maple body. The primary trade-off is portability; at nearly 30 lbs, it is considerably bulkier than its competitors from Dusty Strings or Salvi. However, if you prioritize tonal complexity and a professional tactile experience over ease of transport, the Prelude 40 is a top-tier investment that holds its value remarkably well. It is the definitive choice for the advancing harpist.
