[Harp-L] Hotel California instrumental break on diatonic harp

[Hellerman, Steven L.]

Have to agree. Quite amazing.


I've played this solo probably 35-40 times in the last five years or so, mostly at a weekly jam. Usually in Second Position, but sometimes in First; or starting in First then switching to Second. Never as good and exact as this guy does it in Third, that's for sure. Perhaps I'll give it a try......

wow, thanks for posting this!

Sometimes I think I'm a pretty good harp player... this is NOT one of those
times. <grin>
I love the sound, and I'm amazed at the control.
