[stonedeliot]

Amazing. Beautiful. Keep going! Thank you.

[gildedfryingpan]

You rock!

[hollaye69]

and would I have to learn to to read notes? or could i have a teacher just teach me? I took piano lessons and im pretty pretty bad at reading notes. :P

[sszreter]

@hollaye69 Well being able to read notes is always helpful... but if you're okay playing piano without reading notes then you'd be okay playing harp without reading notes I think.... It probably depends on if your teacher insists really :P

Harp isn't that hard, you just need perseverance like with most instruments :P plus it sounds nice even with simple pieces ^_^

[hollaye69]

Wow this is amazing. Im 18 and would really like to start taking harp lessons. Is it as hard as everyone says? You make it look so simple. ^__^

[ilianajett]

I absolutely adore this :)

[anvilseler]

fuckin genius !!

[mdodenhoff]

sszreter, Is there any way to play joanna songs on a lever harp? I'm really considering getting a harp for my own benefit, but I would love to play her songs. Any advice? Do you play a pedal harp?

[sszreter]

@mdodenhoff Yeah a lot of her songs can be played on lever harps as there isn't much key changing - anything in 7 flats just play in C major... You would have to tune it into a different key from C major if you wanted to play anything in F major or Bb Major, but that can be done relatively easily :)

Tbh, Cosmia is one of the main pieces that you wouldn't be able to play easily because there are so many key changes and accidentals... You also may not have enough range for the base notes...

[sixthcrusifix]

1. Cool!

2. That site is down :( Have any of the transcriptions?

[HardcoreCowLip]

This is brilliant, like her :)

[psirou]

Wow!

And you look a bit like my favourite female singer ever, Judee Sill.

Why not do a cover of hers? :-)

"The Kiss" would be great!

[evollove90]

WOAH can we marry please?

[george474747]

Seeing the skill that goes into that makes me realise what an instumentalist Joanna is. To play that piece at all is some accomplishment.

[taiyou18]

Very lovely. It's a bit under tempo and I would have wanted to hear it slightly faster, but lovely nonetheless. =)

[annalee26]

You seem like a really devoted musician.

I want to pick harp back up again.

I played a little bit and fell in love.

Joanna is a wonder and so are you. :)

[Ladameviolette]

wow. good for you.

so beautiful that you can play, and that you've chosen her.

she's such a composer.

Thank you.

[AdamBond7]

you just made me want learn harp. think i'll go buy one. Is it difficult. I can already read music and play a little guitar and piano??

[sszreter]

Everyone says it's difficult... but I play piano too and I don't think harp is much harder than that myself... you'll get blisters but you're probably used to that from guitar =]

[Ch1x0rH4x]
