This opens the rabbit hole to Early Music in general. . .
My interests are increasingly in this realm - since my instrument and its repertoire derive whence. Concurrently, I began taking more interest in archaicisms like harpsichord, modal choral works, and various forms increasingly remote from modernity. I've learned some of the repertoire from Bill Taylor's recordings. I find the bray harp in particular intriguing, yet I haven't sought one myself - it's quite a departure from the rich harmonics of wire.
I suspect the overtones you get with brays are ridiculously similar to those of a mildly overdriven electric guitar. I have a bray harp (not proficient on it by any means) and it plays a mean "Ironman" / Black Sabbath riff. Not sure that's what you were looking for.
But for mysterious/contemplative early music, my one-stop-shop must be Anonymous 4, if you've heard of them?
