I love the glissando with the tuning key thing

[@fungchungb7976]

Is that a resonator?

[@sebastianzaczek]

Really helpful, i'm currently planning on composing a rather contemporary-style duo with harp and flute, and this video gave me quite some inspiration😃

This is fantastic, thank you!

Thank you!

[@Garinioss]

Thanks! I wanted to compose for harp and add it into my compositions.
Sometimes we forgot that we are composing for people and create unplayable sequences of sound.

Great video! Just wanted to ask: is it possible to create the tuning key gliss effect without the tuning key? Maybe with the nails on the other hand sliding on the string? Thanks!

[@miriamoverlach257]

Thanks! You can do the slides with any other metal object, like screws, screwdrivers etc. Nails do not sound, unfortunately.

[@swordyboyify]

Thanks for the quick reply! Really helpful videos. :)

Is that a resonator in the glissando with the tuning key part?

[@miriamoverlach257]

Dear Fung, there is no extra resonator there. The metal stick and the sound board of the harp make the sound ;-)!

[@fungchungb7976]

Haha thanks!:-)
