Einaudi Samba from I Giorni played by Mark Harmer, Harp

This is part of a concert I gave at Thorney Abbey in August 2011. The Einaudi Samba piece is part of a set for piano, but it works really well on the small harp.

I was privileged to share this concert with the great Ismael Ledesma, and I'm also grateful to Andy Lowings for arranging the event and for his support, and to the people of Thorney for making this such a magical occasion. Thank you!

This is absolutely wonderful! I've begun looking now for Einaudi's stuff played on harps. Harps sound so beautiful (:

@vasundhara4music Thank you! I have another one, Primavera, which I just need to film and that will be up here.

@RyanMMatthews Thank you! Einaudi's stuff is just amazing. I'm working on another at the moment - hope to post soon when I've got my tax returns out of the way!!

@MarkHarmer i would have not have found him had you not covered his song. He Is amazing. I get tingles Every single time i hear "Devenire," the live london show version especially. Also thank you for your other vids especially Caralan's Dream and La Partida, both of which i listen to so much i fear them getting old. Though that has still not happened after overplaying them a lot. Lol. :)

@RyanMMatthews Brilliant to hear how you found Einaudi! Similarly I've found a few things thanks to suggestions from youtube users. Yes, youtube videos do wear out - for some reason my fingers get ticklish every time someone plays one of my harp videos. Don't know how that happens. Maybe I need to complain to my Internet service provider??!

Wonderful food for this Celtic soul. Thank you.

@MaryGreenleaf Hi Mary, thank you! I find it helps when I play from memory, because then it's part of me rather than something "outside" me. If that makes sense. The only trouble is that Einaudi's music is quite difficult to memorize as it has odd twists and turns and sometimes there are tiny differences each time some passage is repeated. But it's great stuff.
