Rent a Harp
Download our harp rental agreement for pedal harp or lever harp and banker's order form here.
Hiring a harp is the easiest and safest way to begin playing the harp.
It enables you to discover the pleasures of playing the harp with the minimum financial outlay - and provides a cost effective route to playing larger pedal harps as you progress.
For many parents, harp rental can reduce the risk of directly purchasing an instrument, when they are unsure their children will take to the harp.
Minimum rental period for lever and pedal harps is 12 months. This is to rent a brand new harp. It can sometimes be possible to rent an older harp for a shorter period.
See our printable PDF Price List for more information regarding rental prices for Lever Harps or Pedal Harps.
