As a pianist I was instantly looking for my Hanon Exercises equivalent when I took up the harp and found numerous sources recommending this book.
I'm very glad I purchased it well thought out and will help the technically minded get a good feel for technique to build a solid foundation on basic harp playing technique. I love it and when I finally managed to get a proper lesson (online thanks to lockdown) my teacher was delighted that I'd purchased and started learning from this book.
From the perspective of an advanced musician playing level 8 piano taking up the harp for the first time as a beginner this book is a really solid choice.
I've given it four out of five purely as it's not quite as good as the hanon exercises themselves but it's the nearest thing if you're learning the harp.
Recommended! Hope my humble two cents is helpful to some other aspiring harpists out there.
