RE: [Harp-L] Charlie Parker solo on diatonic

[JersiMuse <jersimuse@xxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Rick !

You are right, all my vids are played on a Lydian tuned harp in C.
I feel it is more comfortable to play in all keys.
The last vids are played on a Lydian Brodur harp, customized by SebCharlier (combs are in Cocobolo wood and reeds are Hohner Golden Melody ones).
The first ones were played on a Lydian tuned 1847 Silver Seydel harp in C, customized by myself.

Regards,

Jerome

"quite another to play it solo or with a rhythm/chord  track."
..................and quite another, again, to play with a flesh and blood musician. Seems like hardly anybody does it anymore, at least on Youtube.
Amazing playing, nevertheless, Jerome. By the way, just listening to your 'Stella by Starlight'; is that a raised dfraw 5  I hear?

I think you miss the point.


 It is one thing to play along in unison with a recording; quite another to play it solo or with a rhythm/chord  track.


It is also to separate two instrument "voices" when they are playing in unison.
hope this clears everything up.
