Harp parts for Berlioz Symphonie Fantastique

Here are two amazing Harpists from Australia practicing the 2nd movt for Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique. The Harp part for this is VERY HARD! Domenica (1st) Leah (2nd). I played 1st Oboe in the concert and they were great!

@amiharp: I was referring to wrists on the soundboard and the hand position and shape. I don't play with 'military' elbows either. I wouldn't know based on the fingerings, but fingerings and overall technique aren't the same thing. Point is, they are playing a very difficult piece very well, regardless of what method they use. I was just responding to someone else's post based on what I observed.

@flootloops : actually seeing the fingering the harpists are using it looks like Mrs Chalifoux markings. I played this with Salzedo markings and the 2nd harpists is using the markings I have from Mrs Chalifoux.

Not all Salzedo student play with Military elbows, Not even Salzedo.
