That's much nicer than the arrangement I've got of this. Which one is it? Love the decor too - and the picture of the "Lady of Small Onions" as she is known in our house!

Hi...thank you for watching. This arrangement is from The Irish Harper vol. 2, by Maire ni Chathasaigh. (The pre-Raphs are great. Cheers!)

[hugsandshanti]

Really beautiful. What kind of harp are you playing? (number of strings, kind, etc.) THanks!

[faeryharper]

Hello. He is a 38 string Salvi Ana Lever)

[hugsandshanti]

I love that you play a "he"!!

I play a Dusty Strings but have been wanting a Salvi lever.

Any plans to go on to pedal?

Thanks for replying!

Also, where did you find the music notation for your piece?

[faeryharper]

I can't see myself with a pedal harp. I wouldn't know where to start! This music is in 'The Irish Harper vol 2' by Maire ni Chathasaigh.

(He's called Cymbeline...my Salvi).

I've seen so many movies that have this song in it and I had no idea what is was called.  Very pretty. :)

Brilliant! A pleasure to listen too!

[hugsandshanti]

I can't see myself with a pedal harp either but think having a bit of a "bigger" sound someday would be nice and of course, there is the esthetic appeal of the Salvi Ana over the traditional lever harp and more strings. Is Cymbeline your first harp? What country are you in? Would love to 'chat' more harp stuff with you?

Just realised the Lady of Small Onions is actually on one of your other vids! Oops. Not concentrating. The comment about the tune was on the right one though, so there's some hope for me! And I like the picture in this one too.
