The Utah Arts Festival starts today - and amid the food vendors, performances and artists selling their wares is the biggest musical instrument you're ever likely to see.

The Tribune's Kathy Stephenson reports today on New York artist Bill Close, who has strung 3,000 feet of brass musical wire from the giant wall of the Salt Lake City Library, creating two giant harps that the public can play starting at 8 p.m. tonight through Sunday.

Check out this multimedia story by Tribune photographers Chris Detrick and Jim Urquhart about the installation of Close's "Earth Harp."
