 Celtic Harp Legend tells that the first
harp was built by Canola. Having a disagreement with her lover, she left
to wander the night. She was drawn by a beautiful music which lulled her
to sleep. By daylight she discovered that the music was made by the wind
blowing through sinews of flesh clinging to the skeleton of a whale, and
was inspired to make the first harp. The harp is sacred to the Daghda,
or "Good God," the Celtic God of abundance and protection. His
harp has the power to summon the seasons, and has three special melodies
. . . The song of release, to make one weep, the song of joy to make one
laugh, and the song of peace, which brings sleep. The music of the Celtic
harp has the haunting power to take us to a place of magick and mystery.
