Very pleased to announce I will be uploading hours of Eharp playing. Thanks to Graham Griffin who sent me digitized versions of cassettes done by Robert Schaefer and Mae Lang.

First Up is the A side of a cassette by Mae Lang playing the Eharp with the traditional Alkire tuning. https://youtu.be/5LMtncngWKg

Hi Bill & Joe,
I lost track of Mae & Art. Is it true that they have both passed away.. They attended HSGA and Aloha International conventions for many years . Very good musicians and beautiful friends.

Wally, I don't know for a fact, but I was assuming she is no longer with us.

I exchanged emails with Mae and Art many moons ago. Her single string "vibrato" caught my attention and they were very friendly people.
Very appropriate that you should bring her music forward
Bill. Good Job!!
