Glad you find it interesting! If you want, that's my review of the Dusty: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xw4-xcAIUdw.html All the best, Chiara x
I found your sheet music for this song. Yay! I absolutely love it. It has such a wonderful sound to it and I'm looking forward to the day I can play it even 1/10th as good as you can.
I hadn't expect it up front, but the Salvi Egan sounded the best to me in this piece. Not because of the overall sound, but because the difference between piano and mezzoforte. It followed your technique and musicality beautifully.
They're so great!!! Check my Dusty review here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xw4-xcAIUdw.html&ab_channel=ChiaraPedrazzettiARPAtelier
This video was REALLY helpful to me, as I am a pianist turned harpist, and still learning to play this beautiful instrument! I "resonate" with all of your explanations and comparisons. Thank you! Listening with headphones changed what I thought was my favorite. Excellent suggestion!!! I subscribed to your channel ! I currently own a Lyon & Healy Prelude (my first one) which I use to play in weddings and several times a month in a church orchestra. Also bought a Dusty Strings Allegro at a harp conference for its portability and for my daughters to learn on. Sometimes I really prefer its clear and bright sound, especially for Irish pieces. The ornamentation seem easier to play and articulate on the nylon strings. I really appreciate the delicate sound of some of the handcrafted harps; especially love the lever harps built by William Rees. For the piece that you played, I loved the clear, forward tone of the Dusty Strings and my second favorite the was the Llawenydd! I would love to purchase the piece that you composed, and learn to perform it. The variety of techniques is wonderful and it was so entertaining to watch and listen to. Thanks again!!
Thank you for your comment and glad you're playing beautiful harps, I hope you'll always play with passion and joy. You can write me an email info.chiarapedrazzetti@gmail.com and I'll email you the score! All the best Chiara
Camac is best for me! I own a Celtic Isolde and the sound and string tension is ideal for me, the design is beautiful and they are definitely not cheap but still affordable for hobby harpists who want a high quality instrument that doesn’t break the bank. My teachers had a Salvi Mia and Aoyama and I didn’t like them. The first sentence in the video is so true, it depends on your needs, not on price or design alone. Your harp must resonate with your heart
Very true words! If you want more thoughts about the Mélusine, check out my review of it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hj71T3z1Gr4.html&ab_channel=ChiaraPedrazzettiARPAtelier
I love your song that you were playing, it was awesome I'm assuming you wrote it because I never heard it before. I would love to play it, it's so beautiful. I just enjoyed watching and listening to you play on all of the harps.
Thank you so much! What a wonderful video. I especially like the point of liking them ALL! each one had its own particular flavor! This is exactly how I am with the harps I own! Viva la difference!
The Dusty Strings and the Salvi are my favorite, they sound amazing! Btw the music is so beautiful, I would love to learn to play it! Where can I find the music sheet?
Yes you're right! It's just a taste, a cadenza, to "show off" our instrument. I would love if anybody asking for the score would come up with their continuation of it! :-D
I really liked the Camac and the Llawenydd. They had the best balance between a meaty bass, clear high register, and clean harmonics. When it comes down to it, I'd take the Camac.
Great choice! Soon a Pro&Cons video about the Mélusine :D Here you go: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Hj71T3z1Gr4.html&ab_channel=ChiaraPedrazzettiARPAtelier
What is this song that you are playing because I would like to have the sheet music so I could play this or did you make the song up it's beautiful and I love it😊
Thank you! No, it's just an example I composed for this video. It's free to be developed, maybe I'll do it one day! And you can do it as well, I can send you the score if you want info.chiarapedrazzetti@gmail.com, it's also on my website www.chiarapedrazzetti.com
Thank you. It really is beautiful. I love the middle eastern sound to the melody. I picture dancers, dancing to this. I really enjoyed it. I will head over to Your website. Thanks.😉
Really usefull and could you please tell which will make different from key board and piano sound that is which wont Mingle with keyboard but produce music along for same songs for worship please
For celtic music I find the best is to go with handmade harps. I don't know where you're from, but there are some very interesting harp makers around, I'm looking at the moment at German's ones.
Looking into purchasing a Harp, wanting an Angelic sounding Harp. What would you recommend? Thank you in advance. Oh and I am a beginner as well. Lol forgot to add. Thanks
All harps sound angelic :-D Joking, it really depends what your tastes are. Some people prefer a clear and crispy sound, some other more warm and round. My advice is to go to a competent shop (or more shops) with a lot of choice and try different harps and models. Also if you're a beginner your teacher should come with you and play the harps for you to help for the choice. Or else the shop should provide a person who would help you. I'd come with you but I think I'm too far! Let me know what you choose, good luck!
Yep painting right now with amazing lights changing colors on the paper this is just a practice test to see how it comes out. Since i still don’t have a Harp I’m jamming to music to be inspired to paint something Amazing. ❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹 and I will. compose an awesome one of a kind song with the Harp adding my Angelic Voice. Should be uniquely Brilliant! ❤️🌹❤️
Wow so pretty!! Curious, is the Dusty Strings FH36 your playing in the video the S or H model? Any recommendations on one over the other when you chose your dusty strings FH36 model? Thank you for any input! I love your videos, they cheer me up and make me laugh so much! ❤
Hi! It's the H model :-) I actually rented one for a week while being in the US, loved it, and then mine arrived a few months after, but I didn't get to choose it as I was already in Switzerland... So I don't have comparison tips, sorry! I'm glad you like my videos, now I'm too busy but in November I'll continue with them :-)
Wow!! I loved the Mani harp!! 😱 Since it's handmade is it possible to purchase one? And if so how and where do I get one? Chiara you're the best, I love all your videos!! ❤️
@@chiarapedrazzettiarpatelie6470 they are harps with levers not pedals but are they the same just a different name? Troubadour = lever harp? I'm sorry, I can't explain any better. 😋.
@@James-qr4sd Troubadour is the name of a small portable harp with levers that Camac harps made some years ago. It could be the name of other models as well. But generally speaking yes, the troubadour harps are usually small lever harps.
The Mani sounds great but is this company a young company? Not much reviews on this Mani. Can you do a review for us? How much is it sold in your country as not much info on this model?
Glad you like them! Check out my reviews of these two beautiful harps: Salvi: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CScyVDzH7so.html&ab_channel=ChiaraPedrazzettiARPAtelier Dusty: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xw4-xcAIUdw.html&ab_channel=ChiaraPedrazzettiARPAtelier
@@chiarapedrazzettiarpatelie6470 I haven't found one. In my price range , the ogdens , the best i've ben able the fined. What I'd like is something that is to the Ogden as the ogden is to those soft string , irish leveler harps. Maybe that next level up in quality too. If I could get the bottom 36 strings of the grand pedal harp as opposed to where the ogden is , that would be an advantage also.
@@chiarapedrazzettiarpatelie6470 the ogden is the bestI've been able to find in my price range. I'd really like something at that next quality level up. I'm looking for a harp.That is the ogden , what the ogden is to those soft string irish harshaps. And I prefer a harp that is the bottom five octaves of the grand pedal harp in its range. Ps I mean the ogden as it is with gut all the way up.
I play a Camac Melusine, and it's worth mentioning that as well as the models being different, the individual harps are very different as well! Different woods, different grains, and the sound can change dramatically. The one I went for in the end has a much richer sound than the ones I tried at the same time, and what mattered most for me was whether it matched my voice. Every harp is unique... but yes, Camac do make a gorgeous instrument!
