[1943crab]

I think you are the best harmonica player I have ever heard.

[1943crab]

Christelle, I am sorry you have had so much pain in your life, but you have an unbelievably wonderful talent for playing the blues back out of your life. As you express yourself, you speed our healing. I pray that your healing is fast also. Thank you for sharing your life with us.

[shortattentionspan1]

.... wow your demeanor fits the words perfectly - Bravo!

[inguyen88]

Christelle, Thanks for making this old man feels alive and joy. Now I'm picking up my old forgotten Hohner harp I have had for the last 20 years. I know you are doing much better in SF.

[MrBoogiechile]

Wonderful!! You're a master.  Your talent and dedication shine. Your ear is so exquisite, playing so heartfelt...Made this grown man cry.

[MrJeppsSe]

Good job only an angel could play that well, otherwise you'd buy the world...

[vidul11]

was beautiful... touching indeed. hope you are doing alright :-)

[donschmit]

Thank you for sharing your music and the pain in your heart. Each coin has it's other side. A life so full of passion has both parts: intense joy and sorrow as well. It is a gift to this community of listeners and admirers for you to have opened to us in this way. Bravo.

[fenix9885]

One of the best versions of this song I have ever heard, absolutely love it :) So much feeling, it is truly amazing. Thank you so much for sharing

[MRobalinho]

Simply...the best!

Very well...

[fil2gas]

Plus que de l'harmonica vous jouez avec votre coeur, c'est toujours le méme enchantement, merci beaucoup, fil2gas, harmoniciste (plusqu') amateur !

[RedGoosie]

How can we make you happy Crystel? Incredible how your sound comes straight out of your heart.

[sergekozlov]

Does anybody understand why Christellester is crying? It's so touching... She is the best!

[praiserus]

She's playing her current life situation. Send her some encouragement if you can.  I met her last week and she's truly doing the "Down and Out" thing. Such talent - such pain.

[Kenneth1944]

Downloaded almost all your videos, you are the greatest christelle. I practice to get like you, but I know I'll never get anywhere near your level in my life.

[psybersniper]

I only Dream of playing half as well as you ! Very Touching as you always are.

[metaldetectingguy]

All the Best and God Bless.

[babaluboo123]

Can't see. Too much salt water between me and the screen.

[TallSomeone]

Good Lord. Jump right into it. What a tone. Just wonderful.

[rayram55]

That is a serious performance. Straight out blue feeling.

[Illmatic973]

That was incredible! I wish I could go to SPAH and see you play in person. Keep up the excellent work and I look forward to the next video.

[ElizabethGS]

Beautiful! Great response to the guy on harp-l who asked how it was done. See you in Sacramento for SPAH August 11 for Jason Ricci's Harmonica blow-off (where you're a featured performer), and for SPAH (where you're an invited guest!) I've no idea why you're upset again. You're realizing your dream of being in San Francisco just about to play for the core of the harmonica community (most people don't ever get such an opportunity), so I'm confused. This should be a very happy time. See you Tues.

[camilo862]

It´s in her nature...

[pianiste25]

encore aussi beau !

Bravo encore christellester

[belleray2]

Very very nice.Thank you for that lovely piece.

Thoughts are with you. All the very best.

[fourteentwelve]

Beautiful playing Christelle. I'm sorry to see you looking so sad though. I hope things get better soon xxx

[chromaticdave]
