Happy Birthday to me! I'll be 70 on Nov. 25th so we're going to learn Happy Birthday this week and at the next birthday party you attend, you can pull out your harp and lead the group in song. I'll play it once through straight and then play it with some syncopation using slap tonguing. No bending - all the correct melody notes are natural notes on the harp. Start on 6 blow.
