i play the thumb up and without any bent in the middle joint,i draw a elipse or a half circle in the air and the go with the thumb up back toward my body,ohhh its a very super brillant resonating sound,that is the russian way.
Carl,Leonard is right in what he is saying, but if adults want to play the harp for a fun time no problem,i think every one is invited,but if they think that they will be a great super star harpists i think its so difficult or somehow impossible,in Russia the harpists spend about 16 years or more in playing the harp before getting their conservatory’s Diploma,they play through thir study a very wide and huge repertoire that is the mind of the adult cant do it when it gets older,because the childrens have a pure minds and no material problems are filled inside,but the adults they do a very small progress,because they are involved with many different problems,Leonard explained his and others problems very well,of course there are some exceptions,and you as a teacher pieces you can study by your self in a year??? ofcourse lees than when you were younger, but tell me please are there musiciens who play many instruments in one time? i think piano in beside the harp is enough.
Hi its a good question, yes students must to feel the difference among the different styles,baroque,classic,romantic,modern,etc….i told my student all the time to play the Etudes also musically not only technically,but the problem is how to explain them the differences among the periods,historically,socially,economically,etc…?????????????????????.
Carl Swanson shows in his book a perfect car,i saw one looks like it in our street, i thought it will be the carl i will deal with to move my harp every time i need, and asked about it,so they told me that its for moving dead people and for there last ride,so i am afraid to move my harp by it.
Hi Rose Mry, why written that you left the community? any way its a interesting question by you,the first music listened by Lily Laskin, Boildieu concert and Handel, i was fascinated by her playing and loved the harp so much.
someone stay in the hotel where i am playing,from Saudia,makes me very angry, tapping on the earth loudly,he confuse me while i am listining to my playing, didnt see him for a month yesterday he came back, i decided to talk to him and ask about my playing ,he said your playing is very beautiful, i answered but you didnt hear me at all,forgot to say he use head phones connected to a Mobile,and he is listening to a songs,what a damned songs i dont care,and he is tapping and getting the culmination with the song and does a lot of quick foot motions, but yesterday he started to sing with the mobile,i got so nervouse, but as they told me that the residence is always right,and no way to annoy him even he does noises,and the most idiotic when he said my playing is beautiful.
the most humilating thing is to put a big LCD tv screen in front of you directly in a small hall where you are playing,and switch it on,and the singers start to dance in a cheap way, how do you feel??????????????
you know i feel bad because i have been attacked just because i gave my opinion, i think its not a way of dialoge, said Choir of Angels.
i swear to God and you are free to believe me or not,my opinion not connected with Getting Venus,although, Wally and Denise by the help of my best friend all over the world Carl,changed my life,and filled it with happiness, maybe you will not understand me,you just started the harp as you wrote in 2006,i played the harp for 16 years and had no harp at home to practice, you know in saint petersburg where i studied there are a very great highly talanted harpists friends of mine,playing on sovietic old
sorry if you have problem with Venus, but you cant change my opinion, and i cant change yours, but the minimum we have to respect each others ideas,of course i am lucky, and let me say that Mr Wally and Denise were so kind and great and helped me.my opinion about Salvi not connected with my Venus, i think i told here
sorry Briggsie if i offended you,but its my experience with four Salvi harps we have at our conservatory, let me tell you a short story, we have also at the conservatory an Aoyama Harp its the oldest one and all the students studied in the harp class played it and dealt with it uncarefully,but till now its in good condition in deffirent with the new salvi harps, i am conciouse to say the its easy to get breaks or hurted or damaged, our Aoyama had bad experience with our students but still stronger than salvi, i confess that salvi has beautiful sound, but let me say i found that W&W Venus looks like Aoyama strong and steady. sorry again i love all the harps kinds and companies and makers.but its my own opinion.
