Description
This piece is an exploration of resonance, and in the essential nature of the earliest harps. "Crowd" (etymologically related to the Celtic words crwth, cruit or crot) was the English term used for instruments of the lyre class, and ultimately for a frame harp from pre-Christian to medieval times.
