Working on a harp piece in finale, two questions:
1. I can't get the G# at the top of the instrument's range to sound--i guess
this is just an error? is there a way around it?
According to "Harp Scoring" by Stanley Chaloupka (yes, Alice, I
ordered it immediately on your recommendation!) the range of a pedal
harp is up to the written G, not G#. Yes, I realize the pedals
should permit that G to be raised to a G#, but that's what he says.
Alice?
2. while improvising using MIDI thru, working on ideas, is there a way to
trigger harmonics? what midi message should my pedals send?
Someone already pointed out that you have to have samples of
harmonics. You can't "trigger" samples you don't have.
