      Matthew Sarb Thank you so much for watching! And that’s a great idea! I could probably only really comment on solo pieces though because I actually don’t have a lot of experience playing in orchestras 😔

      @@alexharpist I know I really enjoy Valerie Milot's performance of Moldau (ruclips.net/video/TnYCW8eWqQo/видео.html ), Natalie Lurie's performance of The Lark (ruclips.net/video/q_ddPXCD-cs/видео.html ), and Seika Dong's performance of The Lark (ruclips.net/video/W1X0c3sJvaE/видео.html ), but I surely am not good enough to play those pieces yet.

      @@alexharpist And then in the Gilmore Girls TV show, Drella (played by Alex Borstein) plays a pedal harp; Alex' fake playing is convincing enough to me that I thought she was actually doing the playing, when it was in fact Lori Andrews (and Alex is playing her electric pedal harp). Here's the link to the RUclips vid that Lori uploaded about it: ruclips.net/video/HgzoYmnPx8U/видео.html

    Hey, if I can give some little corrections:
    The harp from Vermont is not a lever harp, it's a very early pedal harp, probably by Naderman or Cousineau.
    The harp from Harry Potter also isn't a Concert Grand, but an Early Érard, which has only 41 or 44 strings.
    But it's a nice video!
