January 11, 2013, LOS ANGELES, CA -- In anticipation for the forthcoming 2013 NAMM Show, Antiquity Music premieres the Wheelharp, a groundbreaking keyboard musical instrument that gives the player the ability to orchestrate a full chromatic scale of sixty-one (61) actual bowed strings at one's own fingertips, almost like having a real chamber string orchestra at hand. Picture and video of the Wheelharp are available HERE.
With an exotic Victorian profile, curved keyboard, and stunning rosette appointments, the instrument's appearance is equally as breathtaking as its audible character. It utilizes a patentpending action to translate the player's subtle fingerings into a range of bowing intensities, and comes equipped with a full damper system and an electronic pickup system, allowing individuals to sculpt astonishingly beautiful and complex sounds.
The Wheelharp is available in a Radial Model (curved keyboard) and a Linear Model (traditional straight keyboard), and in several ranges. Art case options and pricing are available upon request.
