The harp is used by Sheik when playing duets with Link on his [[Ocarina of Time|ocarina]]. This suggests that the harp was passed down through the [[Royal Family]] to a future Princess Zelda.
The harp used by Sheik when playing duets with Link on his [[Ocarina of Time|ocarina]] was the inspiration for the design of the Goddess's Harp.<ref>{{Cite|[[Interview:Nintendo Power August 2011 (Skyward Sword)|Nintendo Power August 2011]]|The design is the same as the harp that Sheik has in Ocarina of Time.|[[Eiji Aonuma]]}}</ref> It is possible that the two are the same one.<ref>{{Cite||The harp in ''Skyward Sword'' looks a lot like Sheik's harp in ''Ocarina of Time''.

Link can take out the harp almost anywhere in the world and begin to strum. If he plays it in time with the music of the area, the harp will create an accompaniment to it. Additionally, Link can play a mini-game at the [[Lumpy Pumpkin]] where he accompanies [[Kina]] on the harp.<ref>{{Cite|SS|4095|[[Pumm]]}}</ref> In order to earn money for his performance, he must keep in rhythm with her and the audience.<ref>{{Cite|SS|4015|Pumm}}</ref>
