Product Description:
This step-by-step approach to learning to play the autoharp will help beginners and teachers understand the many ways in which this versatile instrument can be used. You will learn a variety of strumming techniques, how to work the chord bars, how to use the different areas of the strings effectively, how to play songs and simple melodies, and even a brief history of how the Autoharp began and developed.




Rating: - Button Pushing...
Bought an OS15-purchased the book-just in case...there's more to the AutoHarp than just "button-pushin'" and this book makes the case!

Some History, clear, concise instructions on starting to play, etc. Excellent starter songs-to boost one's confidence on up to more advanced strum/pluck patterns. This book is well-done and an excellent resource-even as a previously trained musician-there's always more to learn! Glad I bought it!

Rating: - Excellent Book for Beginners!
This was the book I used when I first began learning the autoharp. I found it very helpful, more so than other books. My only complaint is that there isn't a sequel.

Rating: - Finest Autoharp Instruction Publication on the Market Today
If you only buy one Autoharp Instruction Book, this is the one you need to get. It is very easy to understand. You will be playing in minutes. I have several Autoharp Instruction Manuals, but not one can compete with this book. Everthing you need to know, is located in the book. It's a great book and well worth waiting for.
