What is a triple harp?

The stringing tool that was created in Italy began to play in the British Isles in the British Isles at the beginning of the 17th century. This was first brought to Wales, then to other regions later in the century. The instrument has a total of 95 strings arranged in three rows, with 37 strings on the bass row, 34 strings in the middle row and 27 on the height series. The chains in the two outer lines are tuned together, while the third row consists of chains that are chromatically tuned separately from the first two rows. While in the 20th century they became popular types of harp, the triple harp plays people who have maintained tradition. The left hand is used to play notes on the harp. The bass tones are pulled out with the right hand and the tool is able to sound a total of five octaves. As with other stringed tools, the Hasage technique must be handled. One technique that the harpists learn is to quickly play the corresponding notes on each outer line in the alignment, creating a sound characteristic of the tool.

Triple Harp was introduced in the northern whales at the end of the 17th century and the observed musicians of that time helped spread its influence, including August Hall and John Parry. The harp players who carried the instrument on their backs because it was easy enough, brought the instrument to pubs and local fairs, so groups as Methodists were against it and contributed to limiting its popularity. Traditional musicians revived the style of playing and the sound of the triple harp at the beginning of the 20th century, such as Nansi Rchards-Jones who took it and taught others who handed over skills to other players.

Since it has become so well known in Wales, the tool is commonly called the Welsh triple harp. Many old versions of ions are preserved by the original craftsmanship. It was known that the harp was the edge in Wales even after it lost other areas of Europe. In the 21st century, tradition is maintained by experienced recording artistsFrom all over the world, including Wales and the United States that use it to compose contemporary music. Triple Harp is used to record various music on albums, teachers in music schools and musicians in orchestras.
