| L'autre Jour
- Laura Zaerr Harp Music of the 18th and 19th centuries performed on a single action pedal harp made by Challiot (1892 Paris, France). Although this recording was not made with a Thormahlen Harp, we feel it is one of the most beautiful harp recordings. In addition to harp, some selections also feature soprano vocals in French by Gayle Neuman, and Czakan (18th century walking stick recorder) by Phillip Neuman. CD - $15 |
