This harp jam demonstrates the capability of the instrument to draw together the generations. It also demonstrates the universiality of music to draw people from around the world... and one should note, that each country represented, Germany (with the hurrahs), United States, United Kingdom and France, has been at war with each of the other countries multiple times.
