  1. The #soul search and artistic exploration of a #Harpist in a Landscape, with the desire to locate Beauty and the fantastically Weird, go beyond sound and the mystical stringed instrument. / I am with #VirginaWoolf : 'I want to write a novel about silence. The things people don’t say.'

  2. Am super excited, there's going to be a harp concert in Dunedin on the 23rd of March with Úna Ní Fhlannagáin.

    And just as exciting, I'm signing up for a harp workshop with her 🤩

    Tempo Canons (for unspecified quartet)

    This piece is a set of five canons, played back-to-back: all four parts play (almost) the exact same thing, but starting at different times and at different pitches. And most interestingly: different tempos.

  9. We're listening to #IrishSongsAndMelodiesOfThomasMoore by #CharlesKennedy c. 1963.

    Think it was #SimonChadwick, #Harpist, who wrote something like, " It almost seems that it was necessary for the original traditional artform to die out before it could be subsumed into the western classical genre and become respectable". Though I think I've added a jagged edge of two of my own to what I've written.

    #PerformancePractices would likely not have been retained.

  10. @mcmullin yeah, we need a #harpist in here. That's the problem in general with musicians, they spend so much time on that prosthetic, they induce it to do all sorts of evil and/or magical things. Then along comes a stone-deaf Beethoven who says y'know, violins, if you do this this and this it would sound really really cool, I just know it…

  11. Question for any #harpist out there: how do you interpret slurs in a #harp part?

    For example, if you see a melody or arpeggio spanning a few octaves in a bar or two, and it's obviously one single gesture, do you play it differently if it's under a slur than if it isn't? Which do you prefer to see?

    I've noticed I'm not at all consistent about this in my scoring, which makes it look like I want different things when that's not necessarily so.

  12. In harp news, two international harpists will be touring New Zealand this coming Summer and Autumn!

    Italian Celtic Harpist and Composer Adriano Sangenito will be touring New Zealand in February and March 2024.

    Canadian Harpist and Composer Josh Layne will be touring in March and April. He is well known in the harp world on YouTube as the creator of Harp Tuesday and also Harpist in the wild.
