"Rock and Roll on Harp"

Now that's starting to make an eternity sitting on a cloud in heaven
sound a bit more bearable...

Who? On my phone the site doesn't show the video and doesn't give any intelligible description.

Hmmm... Might be worth trying on a computer. It is a guy playing old rockNroll on a large harp.

Mickael Fremeaux

This is my favourite Metallica song played by Victor Santal - Nothing Else Matters

There are other performers doing it on YouTube but I like his version a lot.

[Note to self: In my next life, I'm going to learn harp from a young age from a real harp teacher and not wait until I'm 30 to buy one with no teachers locally available.]

I used to play Locomotive Breath on the harp. I guess I should dust it off and video it.

That's like Hofnung's Interplanetary Orchestra scoring the 1812 Overture for pop gun and recorder (the end blown flute kind).

Would St. Peter approve of a fuzz tone on his harps in paradise?

Those guys have awful costumes! Go look up Harp Twins, they have a lot of tunes, and look a lot better!

RE my post about Victor Santal above (06 Sep 20 - 03:32 AM) I went to my Aunt's funeral a couple of weeks ago. She was 88 when she passed away.

There was a beautiful photo presentation on the screen and the first piece of instrumental music was very familiar. It took me a while to realise that it was a cello ensemble version of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters. I thought it was appropriate for the funeral, even though my Aunt was a gentle, quiet, lovely woman because the lyrics of the song are beautiful too, in a rock'n'roll kind of way.

I think it was this version:

Apocalyptica - Nothing Else Matters

The music cut out before the rock'n'roll bit.

Enjoyed the Victor Santal… and the Dorothy Ashby. In the same continuum John Coltrane’s widow, Alice, playing solo in 1987.
