[musictlk] Auto harp

[Tara Briggs]

Hey everyone! I recently got my kids signed up for a music together class. Experience has been absolutely fantastic! My family I like to get together and play music. My uncle is an accomplished keyboard player and my dad is an accomplished guitar player. I like to sing with them and I play flute. At the class, the instructor was playing and auto harp. I got to look at it today and I started playing in a little bit. I don't have perfect pitch. I have decent relative pitch. I can pick somewhat complicated melodies out by ear. But when it starts to get into a lot of friends and skills I've got to get somebody to spell the notes out for me. Anyway, I'm thinking about purchasing an auto harp so that I can play along with my family. Do any of you have experience with this instrument? What are your thoughts and do you have any recommendations for a particular brand. Is it easy to learn? Like I said, my primary instrument is the flute. I'm simply wanting to have an instrument that I can use to learn the  so that I can accompany myself and my kids while we sing the songs that my family likes to sing.
