Trying one more post. Feeling discouraged. Really hoped this blog would help me stay connected with other harpers dealing with reality and everyday ups and downs of harping and life!
Still working on getting solidified on new tunes learned in Lubec with Haley Hewitt. Love her contemporary take on traditional tunes. Learning to memorize from ear - plus other approaches she taught- is amazing! Get off the page as fast as you can- or maybe never need "the paper" at all- except for future reference! Love it! Very freeing, and offers new ways to process the music. If you are into traditional tunes, it seems the best way to go.
The world sure seems to be a scary place- thank goodness we have music! Thank goodness we have our harps! Harp on, Ladies! Have a wonderful fall!
