Ive been to the waterstones in front of her probably thousands of times but it still took me the entire video to recognise where she was sitting. I feel so dumb.
WOW! I found this so very informative. This lady truly knows her instrument, and what a beautiful sound. The harp I wish that someone would do this about a cello.
I can almost say never felt soo lucky and suprised by sound and talet i thank youuu u very much for particular video jesus bless you and family members for the quality of all this very professional work thank youuu u and have aa good evenig and be carefull
pablo9364 yes, she was very bright. Was planning to walk across europe to Rome without money or belongings, just the harp and playing her way through. There is a name for it that i forgot but it's not unheard off. Other musicians do it too.
That‘s true , because there‘s always a breeze blowing and the harp is so small. I guess the explanation is that the stone ground underneath and the stone wall behind her help create a sound tunnel. Additionally, I was standing close to her.

Yeya Music it's cool that she retuned it to suit herself better. i come from piano and there are no alternative tunings. it's always one way. so this flexibility amazes me.
@@regaldf.9493 true. Same applies to a harp that starts at a C and you try to play a piece in G major. This is where transposing comes in handy. With a two octave harp, whether it's tuned to C, F, G or E flat major, you transpose every piece into the scale that gives you the full range of your instrument.
let me see if i can find her again online and maybe she can answer that question. i am a classical pianost and can only tell you about pianos. what would be exciting if you recorded the same song , camera at same distance , on your harp and uploaded it as a video-response to my video and then everyone can hear the difference in sound. that would be educational and fun!
i asked connie and you are correct. please see her official statement in the description box below. i just posted it for everyone to see. thanks for your participation in this interesting discussion!
I have one that looks and sounds exactly the same-a 16 string 'Wee Bonny' lap harp in walnut and pine, made by Stonyend harps and purchased through Hobgoblin music in England.its got a beautiful tone ,loud for it's size and very well made ❤ highly recommended.
No, not a whole octave! The bottom blue string (normally an F) she has tuned to C, which makes the red strings G (normally tuned to C). Because on a folk harp you can only sharp strings, players often tune some set of strings flat so they can play music that has flats. A folk harp with a full set of sharping levers could then play from however many flats it's been tuned for, up to some numbers of sharps in the music if all the sharping levers are engaged.

Wonderful. Thank you both. Hy

I agree. people should do this with all the other string instruments too. that would be so informative for the layman or general public.
Lovely playing. Thank you for the information.
Very lovely sound, for sure. From midwest USA. Be safe and well. Thanks for sharing. 🙂💕🕊️
Very beautiful tone....
Its got a beautiful tone
Fun to see what can be done with such a tiny harp! well, done Ma'm from Cork. :)

Very nice talk. Incredibly informative. And sweet video

Thomas Sebastian Mueller good luck to her. Sounds like a brave and exciting thing to do.
I was surprised by how the sound really carried - particularly outside recording. Very nice.

Beautiful ringtone better I believe than some of the larger one's.
Good work!

I've been trying to understand the name of that little tune she's playing, and can't quite make it out. Does anyone out there know what it's called?

Very informative so thank you very much 🇮🇪✅
Fantástico ❤❤❤!!!
Brilliant video, great stuff.
I was incredibly lucky to happen upon this location at that moment. it got cold and rainy soo after and I could've missed her easily.
Amazing!
Lovely!! My cat loved it!😁💘💘💞💞💖💖💕💕💕💕
glad to hear that! a little bit of healing in this world....
Amazing so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
Ik wil graag weten waar je zo'n harpje kunt kopen? Where to buy such a small harp?
Especially the walnutsound is beautiful!
hello! i found the answer to your question. please read the description below the video. i just added the information for everyone to see.
I like the way she tuned it!
Yeya Music it's cool that she retuned it to suit herself better. i come from piano and there are no alternative tunings. it's always one way. so this flexibility amazes me.
I don't get why she did though, it's not as if it didn't have two octaves before. I have a similar harp that's tuned in F.
@@kathilisi3019 If she played a piece in C major on a 16-string harp that starts on F, then there were only 1 1/2 octaves up from the base note.
@@regaldf.9493 true. Same applies to a harp that starts at a C and you try to play a piece in G major. This is where transposing comes in handy. With a two octave harp, whether it's tuned to C, F, G or E flat major, you transpose every piece into the scale that gives you the full range of your instrument.
Is this a Wee Bonnie model from Stoney End? I have one in cherry wood. Great tuning! You've given me ideas...

@@thomasmueller7153 that WOULD be cool, let me see what I can come up with! I'm 99.9% certain that is a Wee Bonnie. They are sadly no longer made.
i asked connie and you are correct. please see her official statement in the description box below. i just posted it for everyone to see. thanks for your participation in this interesting discussion!
Could you please tell me how many strings this is....
15 i believe?
@@cambiarbeats564 oh thank you
16
@@ThomasSMueller thank you sir
Great video! Do you know what brand that harp was?

@@Suki_Damson_123 Thank you very much! I'll look into it :)
Very good
lovely
Love you!
Nice tone! I expected shrill sounds and was pleasantly surprised. Did you tune all the strings an octave lower than usual?
No, not a whole octave! The bottom blue string (normally an F) she has tuned to C, which makes the red strings G (normally tuned to C).
