There are many different sizes and styles of harp. Typically the larger ones, like in a symphony orchestra, do have pedals while smaller ones do not. The pedals facilitate a wider range of notes than what you could get without them.

What does the foot pedals do in the harp?

The foot pedals on a harp are used to change the pitch of the strings, allowing the musician to play in different keys. Each pedal corresponds to a group of strings (typically the seven diatonic notes) and can raise the pitch of those strings by a half step or a whole step. This mechanism enables harpists to quickly adjust their tuning for various musical pieces and enhances the instrument's versatility. Overall, the pedals play a crucial role in the harp's ability to produce a wide range of notes and harmonies.
