Lyre Rentals

The Lyre Association has lyres of various builders and sizes that are available for members to rent.  Monthly rent is $20-40, depending upon the size and quality of the lyre. Contracts are usually for one year, renewable at the Lyre Association conference each summer.  The Association is happy to assist new lyre players in finding a teacher in their area.
