Celeste Ray plays Bowed Psaltery

[JelMain]

Nice one, but too short! If you find any hurdy-gurdy players, it blends in well there as well - yo can use the long-bowed notes to fly off and over them. Yup, and an Aoyama and Pilgrim too.

[tristan01101]

Yeh well, going into music next spring. Gonna major in playing the Bowed Psaltery. Gonna be pretty sweet.

I just got to play a bowed psaltery yesterday! Unfortunately, I'm not nearly this good.

Beautiful work. I love how enthusiastic she is during the whole song. It's great to see someone enjoying an instrument to that extent.

[itsaguinness]

is there another title for this reel?

[bowedpsaltery]

As a matter of fact there is an Appalachian title of "Old Molly Hare"

Cheers!

[euroserf]

In Ireland I've heard it called " The High Call Cap " ( maybe high-caul ?? ) and there is a specific step-dance with the same name danced to it !

Celeste is one of the most talented and lovely psaltery players out there! I love the skill and musicianship she brings to this beautiful instrument. It's too bad the psaltery gets stepped on in the mix though. The flute is really good, but waaaay too loud.

[bowedpsaltery]

Thanks Tim, I'm performing with my new group 4 Celtic Women (Celtic Harp, vocals, flutes) it's all pretty exciting stuff!

thanks again!

Celeste

[brittleXbullet87]

I have a psaltery. Although I don't play with two bows but only one for me. :D

[thefairychild]

Same here.

[skitty110]

When i become better at playing, I think i might want to try that!

[rudyvandam]

Stunning!

[borimirtheboring]

She's hot

[loppestreRockus]

I think what our sussinct friend is trying to say is, that seeing this lovely young woman, best this instrument and musical piece, while showing such "joi de vivre", is very stimulating to the senses! Of course, I'm just paraphrasing, mind you.

[williamsharkey]

Nope, we're talking temperatures here Sir.

[escort325]

very good!

[JimiXpresion]

Great sweet melodie...

You really seem to feel this instrument!!!

[Pigglies]

Beautiful! I'd never seen/heard a psaltery played before, very nice instrument!

[dread66mon]

Simply delightful!

[Knotcarver]

First few seconds were nice - before the other instruments drowned out the psaltery.

[scimperman]

Great performance! Fun, happy, lively.  Nice to see the bowed psaltry in action. Thanks Celeste!

[sisterfannybricejohn]

Visionary composer Celeste Ray's music is divine!

Reviewer: ON THE ROAD WITH JUDY! (click for website)

Celeste Rays enchantingly haunting sounds transport the listener to the magical regions of fairies, mystical lore and dreams of the spirit! So cuddle up to a warm cozy fire with someone you love, pour a glass of your favorite wine and let Celeste's music do the rest. It will!

[embnyc]

Awesome clip Celeste! But how about giving the YouTubers aREAL treat and posting one of your ORIGINAL songs so they can REALLY see and hear you you in action! And while you're at it - post one of them smoking harmonium pieces too!

[embnyc]

Well - who would think we'd be YouTube neighbors!!??

[luigisdoghouse]

Fantastic tune and really fun to watch.

[bizandarts]
