Elias Parish-Alvars (1808-1849) Grande fantaisie sur Lucia di Lammermoor Grand Fantasy de / by Donizetti Valérie Milot, harpiste/harpist JD Productions www.valeriemilot.com
This isn't even a pandemic video, but it was filmed in an empty performance hall. That's such a great use of the grand acousticaly tuned space during the daytime, and it's even better for listening without random crowd noise or applause.
Thank you, Valérie for sharing this magnificent performance. It is beautiful beyond words! Merci Valérie d'avoir partagé cette magnifique prestation. C'est beau au-delà des mots ! 🌹🌹🌹
I love to watch someone very skilled play the harp. From a short distance away u can't see the strings. It looks like the heavenly music is coming out of thin air. Lovely
You are a true Master. I saw you on another Video and was memorized by your artistry. I shake my head and thank our Creator for bestowing you into our Lives.
Ew. What a belittling insult. She worked for every bit of that skill, and it was her choice to share it, assisted by the hard work of the filming and recording crews and the contributions of all those who worked to provide the technology for us to enjoy it.
I have NEVER heard such a clear recording of a harp. Your talent and harp skill is enchanting to hear AND watch! Your hand motion and fingering fluidity were delightful.
The movement beginning at 4:30 was prominent in the film Man of Flowers (1983) that I saw back in the '80s. I hadn't heard it anywhere else until now. Funny how music can conjure up memories from years past.
Valérie, suite l'écoute complète de cette prestation, nous ne pouvons pas compter les heures de pratique, et de répétitions. Un jour, je vais t'inviter au CND afin de démontrer ce que signifie la persévérance. Les élèves seraient impressionnés à quel point il faut pratiquer afin d'atteindre notre but! T'es cheveux sont superbes sur cette vidéo!
cette grande fantaisie de Parish Alvars est sans doute l'une de ses plus difficiles, je me souviens avoir acheté la partition il y a quelques années et avoir abandonné car je n'arrivais pas à y trouver la melodie, mais après vous avoir entendue, tout devient si clair! Vous faites ressortir les mélodies de chaque variation d'une manière si fine et évidente, avec une interprétation magnifique et grandiose. Merci!
The music comes from such a profound level, we are left speechless, incapable of producing words to describe what our souls feel with a vibration that touches us like no other!
Nice performance! Great acoustics, also. I love the unique modalities and incidentals he uses; the full emotional color is present in every passage, thank you!
I'm mesmerized by her, entranced! What a musical gift she has. I never much appreciated the harp, but as I've gotten older, I find myself falling in love with it. I think it's the complexity of it. It's quite stunning to me now, to say my ear for music has fined tuned itself and so for that I am so glad. Masterpeice...
Music is beneficial when it arouses an emotion or a mood within you. it's not necessarily about being melodic, religious or overtly musical, but about carrying the listener somewhere where he was not before. In this case, I feel like sitting on a park bench by a warm evening. the wind gently caresses my face, and everything is silent except for the nature around me. It's interesting that I mention that it evokes the silence when I speak of this kind of music that glorifies the sun !
Manifique!! Valerie, you are truly amazing! I could listen to you for hours! I will have to buy some of your CDs. Your performance is so beautiful and flawless! You are a very talented harpist!
Magnífico, lindo, maravilhoso. Essa peça é uma das obras primas do compositor. Ainda você interpretou duma maneira inigualável. Som produzido impecavelmente. Expressão facial, gesto com braços e mãos em perfeita harmonia. Ainda produção de vídeo bem feita. É simplesmente perfeito. Para esta peça, ninguém vai superar você. Parabéns e meus longos aplausos.

Grande fantaisie sur l'artiste si jolie aussi. Pièce complexe exécutée sans failles avec la science exacte des mains au diapason avec leur instrument. BooYah
I did not realise that I could write here. It has taken me over 20 minutes to scroll down to get to the bottom to write my piece. I don't know if there are enough words to write how amazingly you, Amy, play. I was completely mesmerized by the beauty of the music and the way you played, oh my heart. What emotion and beauty went into that. I can only thank you for magic that will last forever and will continue to watch/hear you when I can. I was transformed and taken to another level of beauty to hear and watch this magic. Thank you, thank you Amy. It was pure perfection. Sanchia Fenster
