After more than 20 years of success with our iconic Korrigan harp, our new model, “Lancelot”, redefines excellence in gut-string lever harps.
Lancelot is the culmination of a rigorous research and development process, fueled by careful consideration of the needs and expectations of harpists. The gut strings have been optimized in terms of length and tension to deliver a powerful sound and exceptional playing comfort. The range and gauge of the natural gut strings, down to the A in the 5th octave, are identical to those of the pedal harp, ensuring a smooth and familiar transition for student harp players.
Similarly, the new “Heavy” wire strings for lever harp ensure a more balanced transition to the gut strings, enriching the instrument’s sound palette. The acoustics of the resonance box have been meticulously reworked to deliver incomparable richness and depth of timbre. Lancelot’s design is modern and uncluttered, with a slender column that gives the harp its unique elegance.
With Lancelot, Camac’s craftsmen have succeeded in combining tradition and innovation, creating a lever harp destined to become a benchmark for all harpists who favour playing on gut strings. Lancelot isn’t only a harp, it is a faithful companion, ready to reveal the depth and richness of its every note.
