Artemis 39

Celtic Harp with 39 strings

Bohemian Hook Harp

Bohemian Hook Harp

This model is inspired by hook harps as they were played primarily by travelling musicians in Northern Bohemia and Germany from ca. 1850 to 1950. An essential characteristic of these harps are the sound holes in the sound board and the closed back. Also, these instruments feature lower string tension and relatively narrow string spacing. These characteristics were further developed and used to create a modern instrument that speaks immediately and with a voluminous bass and a silvery descant range - all at a light weight. The Bohemian harp can be fitted with a braying bar upon request.

Weight: env. 5.5 kg
Height: 136 cm
Strings: 36 strings from G to g3

Price: starting at 3550 € with Loveland levers

Josef Häussler Harp

Harp after the instrument on the portrait of Josef Häussler ("Mozart's harpist") by Severin Pfalz, 1834

Josef Häussler, also known as "Zöpfchen", was known in Prague's taverns from the end of the 18th century until far into the 19th century as a virtuoso and highly imaginative harpist. His encounter with Mozart, who composed a piece for him, made Häussler a legend. This harp is a re-creation of the instrument played by this Prague harpist on the only known portrait made of him. The design and stringing characteristics of historic harps of the early 19th century are brought together with modern string instrument building techniques. Gentle tension and narrower string spacing are perfect for rapid, fluid playing even without a lot of force. The instrument features a descant range full of overtones, a sonorous mid-range and a full, powerful bass. This harp can also be fitted with a braying bar upon request.

Weight: env. 6.5 kg
Height: 140 cm
Strings: 36 strings from G to g3

Price: starting at 3600 € with Loveland levers

Hochbrucker Harp

Harp after an instrument by Jacob Hochbrucker of 1738

This unusual instrument is a replica of an original from the collection of the Germanic National Museum in Nuremberg. It was developed by the renowned instrument builder Jacob Hochbrucker – who was probably the inventor of the harp pedal – as a travel instrument for a harp virtuoso. Historically, this harp has narrow string spacing and gentle string tension, so it responds easily. The sound is brilliant and clear. This harp is perfectly suited for rapid, ornament-rich "Baroque" playing.

Weight: env. 2 kg
Height: 114 cm
Strings: 29 strings from G to g3

Price: starting at 2950 € with historical levers (see gallery)

Bamberg Harp

Harp from the first half of the 18th century

This replica of an instrument from a private collection emanates Baroque lightness. The combination of gentle string tension and very narrow string spacing is perfect for rapid, fluid playing even without a lot of force. This harp is a wonderful instrument for musicians who interpret Baroque music, but it is also a sonorous, light, and nevertheless "voluminous" companion for all other harpists, especially when travelling. The instrument is made from curly maple. As many harps did until into the 19th century, this harp features braying, here for the lower 16 strings (G to a'). The inventive 18th-century harp builder developed an ingenious Baroque effect device – the harpist can turn the braying on and off with a single handle! The replica is available with and without a braying bar.

Weight: env. 4 kg
Height: 139 cm
Strings: 36 strings from G to g3

Price: starting at 3480 € with original-style levers
