The Full-size Grand Concert Harps (the kind used in an orchestra) has 47 strings, Concert harps with 46 strings are called "Semi-Grand" An "octave" of strings in Harpist terminology is seven strings running from F in the bass to E in the treble. The octave numbering system used by pedal harpists starts with Octave 7 note C. The octave number gets lower as the each E is passed, ending at zero octave G. There are also pedal harps with fewer strings, usually 44 (from low D to high E). These are either antique instruments, or intended for students.
Other types of harps, such as traditional folk harps or historical instruments, can have
any number of strings within a fairly large range, from small Celtic lap harps or Medieval harps with hardly over a dozen strings, to large chromatic triple harps with a number of strings in the nineties.
