Masterfully played, would never have thought it, but it is truly a song that belongs on harp (No offense Steve), it adds that element of fantasy as others have stated... hmmm perhaps adding this to Entangled with 2 12-string acoustics? ;-)
oh is that all! That is some very creative work you made it into a piece that really brings out the best qualities in the harp. I really hope you reconsider and publish some arrangements someday. What you need is a scribe to get it all down on paper for you.
@deblabel Thanks so much! The lever changes are what make it fun. As for the arrangement, some of the credit must go to my husband, Cyrus Rua, who had done a transcription of Horizons for piano before we ever met. All I had to do was arrange the piano version for the harp.
Ah the ability to watch you produce your magic without ever leaving home! Great stuff, and I am sure many of us look forward to more here, and more throughout the year in the Ren world!
Such a nice surprise Cyrus, very pleasant to the ears. Amazing how she tunes the strings while playing and those harmonics as in the original. Excellent post.
@jeevesthepunk Thanks a lot. The lever changes are what make that such a challenging piece. Horizons doesn't have the most lever changes in my repertoire, but it has some of the fastest.

The music and in fact, the artist herself are beautiful and pluck at one's heartstrings as deftly as the strings of the instrument is played :)

That was absolutely spellbinding, and beautiful in every sense. I loved it! You have managed to create a very 'Arwen in Rivendell' feel about it.
Sarah - that was a wonderful rendition :-)
