Re: [Harp-L] Howard Levy playing "Amazing Grace" (St. Sabina'sChurch, Chicago)

["Rick Dempster" <rick.dempster@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

It goes without saying that any harp player who doesn't take their hat
off to Howard is a bloody fool. My remark was one expressing personal
taste. Howard's technique is a preposterous marvel, but if I was going
to choose a performance of Amazing Grace to take to a desert island,
there would be long list before I got to this one.

What exactly is the note limit these days? I hope that I haven't broken
it 
lately, but I would guess that I have. I'll try to slow it down in the

future.

Would it have been better to just play that simple but beautiful melody

straight ahead 10 times? (with no bridge!)
OUCH!
