  • MadHatterAmber,

    Yes there is... Medieval style architecture is refered to as gothic, that's where it came from. Gothic also refers to shape, not just music styles. And it was known as that long before what we call goth style today came along. The shape of that harp she is playing in the video is known as the gothic harp shape. There is also medieval armor known as gothic armor and old style churches and castles are known as gothic style architecture.

  • Simply beautiful, wish I could play like that. Wish I even had an harp!

  • Bravo ! very nice !

  • Yes, very good ! We play it on the Renaissance lute under the name " Basse DanseLa Roque" (Attaingnant). It is linked to the famous italian piece " La roca(&) el fuso ". So it is an idea of weaving.

    Great thanks !

  • This is a piece from the Pierre Attaignant lute publication of 1929. It sounds good on the Gothic harp, and the player's sharping of a note in the lower range is deft.

  • brays, please...

  • Where can I find it?

  • Gorgeos,, more please :)

  • I'd do her...

  • this sounds nothing like the cure. i was robbed.

  • @Pawnbroker00 Yes, but that is probably a description of the architecture. The gothic language is in fact considered a germanic language (as is English, Swedish and, of course, German), but not a north germanic one like German, but rather an east germanic one. I know that at least some well educated swedes in the 19th century claimed the swedes to be closely related to the goths (which is false) merely because of prestige, and it would not surprise me if some germans had done that too.
