Do you know any famous harp players?

Question

I am doing a music project on the harp and do not know any players of this instrument, please help.

Answer 1

Only one. King David. 8~)

Answer 2

Ooh, I love the sound of harp. But I dunno any harpists, sorry. I'm more into vocal (opera). But the 1st answerer has kindly enough provided you a wikipedia link. Although it cannot be used as a legitimate source for any project or paper, but at least it's good enough for starters as a quick reference so you know where to start.

Anyway, why don't you try asking this question in the Classical section? I'm sure you will get more answer there than here. Good luck with your music project.
