Pedal harps may weigh alot but the way they are made is that when you lean it back first of all you hold it between your legs NOT on you shoulder though it may look like it, but they are made to be balance when playing so not to be heavy on you so you can be relax when playing. And the way a harpist finds the strings is colors on the string like all red means the strings are C's and all the F's are blue or black. The way a harp changes keys is the pedals. There are seven pedals that represents the notes when you push one up or down it changes the keys if you look at the link I have above and look at the bottom of the harp you will see these pedals. On a Lever harp there are levers on all the strings that allow you to change the key. Sorry if this is really confusing....

By the way if you happen to see any pretty harps, post the link even if you don't play cause they're beautiful to look at :)
