	It's a kind of harp, actually a true Irish harp.  The proper spelling 
is Clairseach (pronounced Clair-shark).  It's supposed to be difficult to
play. There are actually a few people who do play them.  One is Ann 
Heyman.  She plays on a number of CDs (A couple of which I own) and is a 
member of a group by the same name which consists of Ann and her husband 
Charlie.  They've come to our school the past two St. Patty's days and 
they usually play to a good size audience.  (If anyone is interested I'll 
find out if they're coming again and post something to the list).
