“Suite in G Minor, Z.661” (https://youtu.be/rYoUrWrB2CE?is=oAuwZawFKZ_Jpxos) is from a group of dance suites published posthumously by Henry Purcell. This version is performed on a TRIPLE harp AKA the official traditional Welsh harp- a 16th century invention which features 3 parallel rows of strings and has NO pedals.

Arranged by Austrian musicologist, multi-instrumentalist, music educator and composer Christina Pluhar🇦🇹 (https://youtu.be/joIgCJu9eIA?si=Qnnyww-pCp0_nTZP) of the renowned early music ensemble L'Arpeggiata in a way that marries Baroque instrumentation and Romani style guitar jazz, i thought it was a nice fun piece to share with y’all.
