The harp played in this video is the 35 string rosewood Celtic Harp (harpe celtique, keltische Harfe) "Manjula", made by Frank Sievert & Burkart Kleiner in Germany.
Frank Sievert sadly passed away a few years ago, but if you are looking for a simliar harp I highly recommend conatcting Reto Hofstetter who worked with him: satelier.hofstetter@gmail.com.

I started learning harp at the age of 8 but stopped at 15, because at that time, the closest person to me, my harp teacher, had to quit teaching, due to domestic violence and alcoholism…This song made me regain my courage for the harp, so i grabbed my harp, replaced all the torn strings, tuned it and start playing again. I started with this very song! Playing this almost puts me in tears every time. This is to me one of the greatest peace of art ever to be performed on Harp. Very Emotional. Thank you

Sounds like you played pedal harp. Had I known they had those classes in the college I went to in New York for my freshman year, I would have learned to play pedal harp. Still kick myself for that!😖 Pedal harp seems like the musical equivalent of learning to drive a stick-shift, IMO. Lever or folk harp is easier, and brings out your inner muse! I haven't been able to play it for a while due to extenuating circumstances, but it's safely in storage. I miss it!😭 But if you can get a small lever harp, you can still have a lot of fun with it!

Ohhhh, go for it, absolutely! ❤️ I know so many adult beginners (and many are a lot older than you!) There are lots of groups, for instance on Facebook, where people discuss which harp to buy, where to find a teacher, what the best online courses are et cetera. It’s a wonderful helpful community. If you are on Facebook, join “Celtic Harp” for a start.

@jonathanp5533 2 года назад

I've always thought this. I remember when I was 10 visiting Edinburgh I heard the most beautiful harp music from a street performer. I gave him every single last coin in my pocket.

@msmo3527 4 года назад

In the Indian classical tradition, I just learned that there are two concepts of musical sound. One pertains to "struck" sound which is audible and the studied sound we all understand in the West to be "music." The other pertains to "unstruck" sound, which is sensed through our hearts/spirits rather than through any physical faculty. Music is, by this tradition, a vehicle or medium, through which, with practice in playing or in listening, one may sense and connect with this mystical unheard sound. I believe it must be the "sound" or vibration of the eternal side of our own beings which is within us and around us at all times. All that to say that the meditation your beautiful playing invokes, must surely be a vehicle honored by this unusual theory of unstruck sound, holding within it the subtle power to amplify this elusive and sacred sound, the sound of one's own spirit. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. I think the Celtic element here must deepen that connection to the "unstruck." It has always stirred something in me.

@hoppy1970 4 года назад

I only realised this myself within this last year and it has changed the way I listen to music; also the human voice. It felt like a "new beginning". Perhaps the connection is stronger in celtic music due to it's ancient origins.

Thank you so much for your beautiful music! I am just learning the harp at 67 and although I may not ever play as well as you, I hope at least to be able to provide some healing and happiness in some way. I could not think of a more beautiful instrument. I used to play banjo and guitar on an intermediate level until I had to have some fingers re-attached after an accident. I lost feeling in both fingers for many years, but now I am ready to play again and for some odd reason, the harp made total sense to me. A beautiful piece from a beautiful person. I have enjoyed it again and again.

But since they didn't have it in my music school, I decided to go for a piano. But to this day, I still want to play the harp. I know that moment will come, it's just a matter of time.

Its all in the love of the instrument, long hours of practice even sometimes all day and nights for a long long time. If you love the harp and are very enchanted by it, you will learn. Its an endless adventure.....Sometimes i go away from it and come back as fresh as in the start about my love for it. If you get one, buy a fairly quality made one so in your practice you can enjoy its beauty as you learn.

How these tunes match to that running water! As if they were twins, harp and water. This composition is so very full of passion - I bet if there were any mermaids sleeping in the bottom of that river (or lake...), they were awakened by those sounds. Kindred spirits rejoice in the company of each other...

1M views and 16k likes? I believe the reason for the low like to view ratio is because the same persons keep coming back to listen to this beautiful piece of music. And of course they could only like once.

@nadiabirkenstock_harpsong 2 года назад

Interesting thought! Thank you for reflecting and commenting. 🌸🌺🌿 It could also be because this piece is now integrated into a lot of algorithmic playlists where listeners don't necessarily comment on or like each song that is played at the moment.

I have been listening to this work of art for so many years, I love the harp, it makes me feel something that nothing makes me feel, it fills me inside and it is the most beautiful instrument in the world, I think for years this is my favorite piece of harp music , it is a work of art and I can't stop listening to it, unfortunately years ago I stopped playing the harp, I would love to play it again, I want to thank u so much for this perfection

@@nadiabirkenstock_harpsong Oh, the pleasure is all mine! I'm just beginning to write celtic music for viola, the viola being my retirement project. As a composer myself, the first thing my ear gravitates to is space and organisation. A lot of Celtic and related music is pretty cluttered these days, meaning the players either aren't listening to one another or don't know how. Loreena McKennitt really does it for me because she knows how to "live inside the sound", as the old saying used to go. Her Tango to Evora caught my ear decades ago when the extended version was used as the theme to The Burning Times. Her phrasing is as natural as breathing. You have a style all your own- very unique. The technical term is that you artfully use the transfer of idioms in how you conceive sound and music. Yes, there is a name for it. 😁
