Я играю на гармошке
С легкой руки tyazhelo неожиданно узнал, что английское слово «harp» имеет, помимо привычного, еще и значение ‘губная гармошка’. В связи с чем задался вопросом: а на чем, собственно, играл Ѳорин Дубощит?‘Now for some music!’ said Thorin. ‘Bring out the instruments!’
Kili and Fili rushed for their bags and brought back little fiddles; Dori, Nori and Ori brought out flutes from somewhere inside their coats; Bombur produced a drum from the hall; Bifur and Bofur went out too, and came back with clarinets that they had left among the walking-sticks. Dwalin and Balin said: ‘Excuse me, I left mine in the porch!’ ‘Just bring mine in with you!’ said Thorin. They came back with viols as big as themselves, and with Thorin's harp wrapped in a green cloth. It was a beautiful golden harp, and when Thorin struck it the music began all at once, so sudden and sweet that Bilbo forgot everything else, and was swept away into dark lands under strange moons, far over The Water and very far from his hobbit-hole under The Hill.
Оказывается, что у концертной арфы часто бывает 46 струн. Арфа такая называется semi-grand.
