    Great job John I really enjoyed the songs you played as I had heard them played for many years at the Renaissance faires I attended. I also play a layer I built in 2018. Again Thanks for sharing such great talent. Paul in ,Northern California.🎵🎶😎❣️

      As vibrações harmônicas das liras e harpas célticas são especialmente calmantes, tem propriedades musicoterápicas próprias e, se ligadas a práticas esotéricas, tem seu potencial curativo dinamizado! Há tantos bons músicos de harpa e lira célticas que fica difícil selecionar apenas alguns mas, se não conhece ainda, dê uma olhada nos trabalhos de Patrick Ball! Se não me engano, parece que ele toca (ou pelo menos tocava) sua harpa com as unhas, como dizem os antigos bardos celtas o faziam. Eis um link para um dos seus álbuns mais conhecidos: ruclips.net/video/jMMPPTOMlPI/видео.html

    It is a lovely sound. But the lyre technique of splitting up notes between hands makes in very difficult if not impossible to play true Irish ornamentation in music (notice that he's not doing any), therefore it is not a very suitable instrument for Irish traditional music. Check out the wire strung harp, the ancient harp of Ireland and Scotland, which has a similar sound but is better suited to performing this kind of music.

      In other words, you want to say that the Irish folk music requires diatonic scale, rather than chromatic? For most folk music an octave and half of diatonic scale is enough, but not for more complex music. This lyre is the chromatic lyre, made in Australia, with a range over 4 octaves.

      @@zvonimirtosic6171 I think he is saying that the nature of the instrument doesn't allow it to play folk ornamentation typical for Irish music, which is true. But I don't understand how a different kind of lyre could accomplish this either

      @@andrej4342 A chromatic instrument can play any sort of music. So this lyre can certainly play all sorts of pentatonic, hexatonic, diatonic etc. music. No problems. It's just a matter of hitting the right strings, which are all there.

      @@zvonimirtosic6171 No, you can't play the ornaments, which need to be attacked in a certain way, and need to be legato. There is no legato on a lyre. Even if you try to play the ornaments and you had the playing technique to execute them fast enough, it would only sound chaotic and the sustain of the lyre would make it sound like you're smashing cluster notes

      @@zvonimirtosic6171 Besides that, there is a lot of music that a chromatic instrument cannot play, basically any tuning system other than TET-12 so you cannot play Byzantine octoechos, Maqamat or Maqamlar, Ancient Greek tetrachords etc etc
