The Veeh-Harfe is a string-plucked instrument that can be played without knowledge of notes. A simple and clear notation was developed especially for the instrument – reduced to the essentials. Note stencils, which are pushed between the strings and the resonance body, enable playing “from sight” – the notes become tangible.
The Veeh-Harfe is available in three different sizes: Solo, Standard, Basis. Decorative elements and different surface treatments result in a large selection of different instruments. All Veeh-Harfe are tuned chromatically. Any key is possible. It is selected by moving the sheet of music sideways.

Special features of a Veeh harp
Handicraft from Germany
In manual production – with attention to detail and an eye for the special – proven basic models as well as valuable individual pieces are created at the place of origin of the Veeh-Harfe. Each harp is numbered, personalized and branded with the Original Veeh-Harfe logo.
Our own paint shop completes the range and makes the Veeh-Harfe more colorful.
Only valuable tonewood is used: solid spruce for the top and solid maple for the back and sides. The interplay of material, shape and construction is crucial for the excellent sound of the Veeh-Harfe.
Following the idea of inclusion, the Veeh-Harfe is developed in close cooperation with the Bamberg Lebenshilfe workshop produced. The instruments are 100% made in Germany, in the Nuremberg metropolitan region , manufactured. All of the suppliers are located in Germany, most of them in the region.
The Veeh-Harfe – how it all began
The idea is obvious, but the Veeh-Harfe has nothing to do with a fairy tale. The history the Veeh-Harfe begins in the middle of real life.
The farmer Hermann Veeh was looking for a musical instrument for his son Andreas, who was born with Down syndrome. Andreas was born with a love for music, but learning to play a musical instrument seemed unattainable. The memory of old string-plucked instruments with note stencils gave the decisive impetus. The basic principle of these instruments has been taken further. Based on the skills of his son, Hermann Veeh designed a completely new musical instrument – easy to use, appealing in shape and enchanting in sound.
A wonderful world opened up for Andreas and many other people. The dream of people with different talents and abilities making music together became a reality.
The Veeh-Harfe is a string-plucked instrument that can be played without knowledge of notes. A simple and clear notation was developed especially for the instrument – reduced to the essentials. Note stencils, which are pushed between the strings and the resonance body, enable playing “from sight” – the notes become tangible.
For children, the Veeh-Harfe is the first formative approach to making music. Adults feel a deep longing for music when they play the harp. The Veeh-Harfe enlivens house music, sets new impulses in music education, in kindergartens and schools, supplements therapy in clinics and enriches everyday life in senior citizens’ facilities.
