A quick google....
will take you to a number of references to Teirtu's harp, a magical selfplaying harp mentioned in the Welsh tale 'Culhwch ac Olwen' (a romance of sorts)... I would ignore the mystical junk and mention of goddesses - why is it people feel a need to see gods everywhere in Celtic myth?As a Welsh name it would be pronounced tyre-tee.

Thanks! And about the gods in Celtic myths: I don't know. I've heard of Culhwch ac Olwen (by the way, also gorgeous names!), and I've read a lot of Celtic myths (still hadn't heard of Teirtu though), and I think the actual story is wonderful. A story can be wonderful without all mystical things around it.
