[combatcommand]

I wish Guitars, Lutes, Lyres, and Harps weren't so hard to make :(

[jgkovac]

@combatcommand

the truth is that harps are much easier to make than guitars or lutes ( see harp making made simple. thanks)

[jmdf103]

i heard henry VIII of england composed greensleeves is it true?

[jgkovac]

@jmdf103

Ive heard the same but listened to a radio program years ago by respected musicologist, Carl Hass, and he says probably not, but what do I know?

thanks

[jmdf103]

@jgkovac  checked wikipedia which says he didnt hehe

[OKSEProductions]

I wish I could play Greensleeves one my harp. My Grandma would be so proud if I could play it on Christmas. :)

[jgkovac]

@OKSEProductions

it is a reasonably easy piece on the harp

[Milfchaser1]

It sounded wicked good .Looking forward to Christmas !

[jgkovac]

@Milfchaser1

thanks, then we'll call it 'What Child is this?

[richey2008]

The performance was great, such a shame that the quality of the sound is so bad, would've loved to hear this in a better quality.

[MrsGreyLily]

I think the harp ist the one and only instrument for Greensleeves :-)

[jgkovac]

thanks, every harpist i know plays greensleeves

[Godboy525]

@MrsGreyLily

Really?

NO SE OYE

[jgkovac]

disculpe

[clorosil]

Conta a lenda que Greensleeves foi composta pelo rei inglês Henrique VIII (1491 - 1547). A lenda refere que Henrinque VIII a fez para a sua amante e futura rainha consorte Ana Bolena. Ana rejeitou as tentativas de Henrinque de seduzi-la e esta rejeição é aparentemente a que se refere na canção, quando o escritor do amor "vazio". No entanto, Henrinque não escreveu "Greensleeves", que provavelmente é do período Isabelino .

I WUd Love 2 Be Able 2 Play The Harp But Wudn't Really Know Where To Begin

[jgkovac]

It's really simple, just like the white keys of the paino. i have some teaching dvds by ear. see website. thanks and go for it

[GoodGollyMsMolly3]

Great Job. Playing the harp looks so difficult!

[fishreligion]

oh ok! :)

[jgkovac]

thanks

[fishreligion]

Whaou... I've never seen this style before... Since 12 years of learning, I've always put my thumb up, and others down... =D

Gotta a version, a variation by Michel Capelier.

Try to find it, it's pretty good! (and a little bit longer... 6'15" =])

Ps: for crystalmumui, try first by learning with an Italian method, named 'Methode Grossi'; I think you can find it in every harp shop. ( I french so I can't give you advice where to buy it... :s)

[jgkovac]

thanks, combination Paraguayan style and I used to play classical guitar.

[PatEternalSerenity]

very well played

[jgkovac]

thanks so much

[manono666]

Greensleeves is perhaps one of the oldest love songs ever written. Very beautiful.
