Some tools in this game are so rare that it is quite a surprise to encounter them. The magic harp is an example.
You can play entire games of NetHack without ever encountering a harp. Yet if you do find a harp, it is most probably a simple wooden harp. Apply it and nearby nymphs might become peaceful (music.c#line440, music.c#line142). Upon discovering a harp, it seems reasonable to try it with the next available nymph.
Yet, there is a second type of harp, the magic harp. If it has any charges left, then it produces "very attractive music" which tames monsters around you (music.c#line431). A magic harp with no charges left behaves as a normal wooden harp.
