Your onto something but it feels stiff...Maybe you should add a little something of yourself into it. In all the other peices I listened to you felt more in tune with your soul and your instrument, but in this its as if your trying to get a specific sound. Ad lib a little in between. Feel it more. I'm sure with more practice you will perfect the sound.
i would keep it without voice or you should sing without harp. Your harp playing is excellent i saw in other movies, your singing could be more touching if you could completely concentrate on that. It sounds a little bit nervous. But your harplaying in the other movies, mmmm, i love for 15 years now the tune of "think of me" and your version touched me. Its not only the words in thats song that makes it monumental.
this is incredible, really a surprise how beautiful this sounded on the harp (1 of my favorite instruments) & u sing quite beautifully as well, u have an amazing tone and range & ur really pretty too. a pleasant surprise ...great job hun :D
ok, im not trying to be rude or say i can sing better then you, but i think tht 1)the chords sorta dont work with the harp and 2)u can be a rilly good singer, but try not to sing so in your throat. your only gonna strain your throat
Virtuoso performer but would you not agree that this adaptation sounds slightly obscure, theres something not quite right. If you dont agree with that then surely you'll accept that the lyon and healy harps are monsters and the Salzedo stlye looks like its just eaten somebody.
Thank you. I have to agree with both of your comments! The experimentation didn't go exactly as I had planned but it was worth a try. And I must add, the Salzedo is the beast of all harps! haha
I love it! Way to innovate with the such a classic instrument! I could totally see you doing a couple of other songs. Could you try "A Simple Prayer" by We Shot the Moon?
hey! this is pretty amazing! im a harpest and this is just cool.... im still stuck playing the stuff my teacher tells me to ahahahaha but this is awesome! keep it up!
Hi erincarnaudrey! Thanks for your comment. I've been playing for about 15 years but I'm still new in venturing outside of classical music. I'm pretty insecure in taking these steps too but I figure there's only room for improvement so it can only be uphill from here. Give it a shot! You're still very young and I'm sure you've got so many ideas you can try out.
Struming is that what it's called? I liked it... especially because just last month I did the exact same technique while trying to figure out how the harp could sound like a guitar... Glad to see I was right t the last detail.
Thanks for the compliment! Yeah, I've been experimenting on strumming different songs. I guess I can just use a guitar but I'm just more comfortable on the harp. I wish you the best in your endeavors and experimenting!
My preference is the traditional method of playing the harp but ... Wow, I find that I like this very much and I believe it's your beautiful voice that compliments the strumming ...
I don't know what you're doing and why, but I think Joanna Newsome has to watch out.
