  • wonderful....just wonderful....

    I just understood what a new sound-field-scape can come from an instrument I was not used to hearing in solo....

    xcellent..thankyou.

  • Super Good!

  • Bravo!

  • Incredible!

  • Yes I know what you mean. I don't cut the skin though. I use a pumice stone to "shave" the layer of rough skin down so it'll be easier. And it makes the calluses smooth. And smooth calluses are better because the bumpy ones sometimes stop the sound of a string or just get stuck (yes my middle finger got stuck once on a bass strings by the wounded wire. ouch)

  • lol when my fingers get too callused, i can't do glissandos, but more especially trills, it gets stuck. so i have to cut away the top layer of skin =p

  • I like it .. ,and I learned something new about glisandos .Tnx for posting:)...

    Nice greetings!!!! :)

  • Oh you're right I don't know what I was saying. I think it's just the way he glissandos, with an open hand. I always gliss with a closed hand, so it threw me off.

  • ничего лучше этого я не слышала...)))

  • That actually sounds like a good idea, rotating your hand so you can use your index or middle finger cuz no matter how callused your fingers are from the harp, you can still feel the pressure when you do lots of glissandos. Or glissandi however its said. But yes, if my teacher saw that I dont think she would be very happy with me...
