A viewer asks: “Why are angels represented with harps?”

This is an intuitive association, recognizing the divine nature of the music emanating from harps in general. People sense it and perceive it and experience it as ethereal, lofty, and at once profound and deep in its significance. At the same time, it is gentle and conveying great beauty. All are attributes associated with angelic beings who have a long track record of offering loving support and guidance, to be uplifting, to inspire, encourage, and assist people in their darkest hour of need and guide them towards finding joy, and "joy" is the best single word encapsulation of what harp music instills within the listener.
