I'm not gonna lie, that Harp shadow looks magical, it made me feel warm inside! Thankyou for sharing with us ❤

PERFECT ❤

Lindo!!!!❤❤❤❤❤

So cute. 🥰

If you want to feel confused, try the harp after playing fingerstyle guitar for years. On guitar the thumb plays the low notes, so everything is backwards your fingers will naturally start scales and arpeggios at the wrong end. I actually tried playing the harp sitting at the wrong end and found it easier, but it makes it hard to reach the high notes and the levers are on the wrong side... I plan to learn it the normal way, but it was an interesting experiment.

Love it!

I grew up playing the piano. Harp is easier, especially a lever harp - and a lot of fun!

It is absolutely hard to play harp, but it can be easy for some folks if they practice and sing to the music a lot. 😇💛🎼

as a violon player and harp beginner i can tell, playing harp is a lot easyer than playing the violin ;-)

Wow you did very well

I play the violin! Can't wait to practice the harp!

I have a question about watching your playing......were you plucking with your 5th finger, or were you just moving it out of the way , and maybe a little balance to your plucking technique? It looks like you're plucking (with your 5th finger), but I'm told you never use the 5th finger......and what a busy song!!!! I got anxious just watching you do a two person job of playing and flipping levers......and you didn't miss a beat. Would it be rude to ask how many takes you did on that recording? Anyway, you're wonderful! So is my harp teacher. I couldn't begin to pick a favorite. Even the Harp twins present an impossible choice between just the two of them. All things harp (and lyrre)!!!!

I'm 68 and started out slowly playing the harp as a senior learner with no musical background. Christy-Lyn's "Learning the Harp" website and tutorials are, in my opinion, exceptionally well done. I started on a Fullsicle, made by Harpsicle, with 26 strings. I rented it through Vermont Violins. I enjoyed it so much I bought a Salvi Titan 38 string. Cost is always a factor. My husband arranged our budget to allow us to pay monthly. Though I can't really justify the purchase - I'm not going to make money as a harpist - but it is an enjoyable activity and it keeps my arthritic hands nibble. The tutorials are excellent and I recommend taking advantage of the trial offer "after" you rent a harp - it can take a few weeks to receive your harp. I think it's worth it.

It's easier playing than carrying a harp 😂 - joke aside, I think learning an instrument is like learning languages: you need to invest your time and it's really rewarding at any level or stage. Thanks for your great video lessons!

As a harp player myself I have this to say: Learning the harp is by no means difficult, but I wouldn't call it easy either. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be. The main thing, other then good technique, is making getting your fingers acquaint with plucking the string. Playing the harp loudly and clearly takes strength and stamina, something you build up by practicing a lot. Playing too much can indeed be harmful to your fingers, so never overdo it. Don't be intimidated by this because I promise playing the harp is a lot of fun, no matter what kind of music you might play on it!

Such a lovely, beautiful tune.

Be inspired and keep ,looking up

I've been wanting to learn the harp since I was a little kid, but I've been scared to take the leap in case I don’t stick with it (I live rurally, and there are no teachers, and I would have to buy one straight up). In the meantime, I watch these videos to get my harp fix. ❤

How do I loosen my lever harps smallest bridge pins? Not the tuning pins. The small bridge pins end in a cone shape unlike the others.

Can you you go here in our country?

How i wish We will meet in personal..

Thank you for sharing idol 😊😊😊

I think you make them all sound amazing! But I love the Bass harp.

Whats the least amount of string harp do you need to play this and does this take years to learn to play

Thank you 😂

There should be silence all around

Definitely Sonnet. It has been on my wish list for a long time.

I'm 79 and just started!

I learned on a Heartland harp which doesn't lean. I'm having a hard time with the lean on my new Stoney end harp

It doesn't look like that harp is leaning on your shoulder. Is it standing free?

Carrie, you are such a sweet person and I love hearing from you 😊 thank you for this video! We just played pickleball the other day too - fun 😂

What an incredible transformation

It is such a beautiful piece, and you certainly di it justice.

Nice playing..nice Song . This is my favourite Song .

I like the Harpsicle price.

So beautiful. Where can I find the arrangements?

Such a good video of information.

Wise chat, very helpful and encouraging Carrie. Thank you

very cool! I love it. You looked like you were having so much fun!

Best wishes from North Carolina, USA, for you, Jonny and that beautiful baby boy!

Sonnet wins hands down. I love mine. It has the bassiest sound of any lapharp that I’ve heard.

You are purely delightful and skilled at communicating. I started less than a month ago and have learned so much from you. Playing harp has been a childhood dream. Thank you, thank you.❤

I like the Sonnet best of all, Christy! Thanks, Balfour

I really wanted to ask if you're athletic, Carrie... but the video answered it before me. Thanks for the tips and the insight into your life!

Remy van Kesteren, a dutch hap player, is very famous and plays in a very innovative way!

Love the Marini

Ah, didactics. How one learns how one learns. My greatest enemy and friend when i learn her.

Sonnet Harp. Very rich and deep tones.

Very interesting. I like the Sonnet the best overall.

You haven't changed your clothes for a whole year? Surely your rotten smell is smelled by aliens living on Mars.
