Well, I am simply filled to the brim with joy and gratitude for last weekend’s Harper’s Escape. It was fabulous and I promise to gift myself more harp events. Meanwhile, last week I also learned how to lightly edit an audio file and upload it to the internet. I know it’s no big deal anymore to do that, but for me this feels really cool! Uh oh…..I do see …
Wow! Sunday was my first-ever storytelling performance with a harp, and the audience was delighted. I recognized some serious applause and I was told later that everyone was talking about me, although, I don’t think it was really me they were talking about….it was really about the harp. Once again I forgot how utterly mesmerizing this instrument is to most people….and me too, of course. For all the worry,…
I am in need of music that would flow, over my fretful, feeling finger-tips, over my bitter-tainted, trembling lips, with melody, deep, clear, and liquid-slow. Oh, for the healing swaying, old and low, of some song sung to rest the tired dead, A song to fall like water on my head. And over quivering limbs, dream flushed to glow! There is a magic made by melody: A spell of rest,…
a sound is good or bad. Please watch your ‘judging’ mind. That is part of the practice. Begin by just noticing sound. In your home. In the environment. In your body. Notice the breath at the same time, because there can be no sound without chi. To learn feng shui, you must understand chi. To understand something like chi, you must experience it’s effects. Feng Shui has a strong experiential…
Sound is a very important element to consider when feng shui’ing your home. Begin, today, to listen more closely to the sounds in your home. Watch this video for inspiration…..if you like it check out the movie: Touch the Sound. I watched it last night. Do you have any instruments in your home? Where have you placed them? Think about it. Meditate….. contemplate silence.
I returned home from the 2009 Harper’s Escape on Sunday. The tunes are still running thru my head, awake and asleep. I am filled with joy and gladness that so much joy and gladness can be shared with harps. Yes? 40 of us gathered strong under gloomy, doomy October skies to learn a few tunes, in community with each other. Angels as well as devils showed up. Spiritual energy/vibration allowed…
I checked in with the Acoustic Musician’s Guild last night. It was a wonderful jam of many guitars, one flute, a drum & some jingles. Mostly we played country/folk……one of my most favorite genre’s. However, there were some Beatles tunes, original songs, and of course a couple of Celtic tunes to liven up the evening. A Good Time was had by All. Support your local Musicians.
Aaaaaaaaaahh. Yes. Time to leave the world of words for a while and immerse myself into the vibration of harp strings. It’s pure love. I’m getting together with some other harpers today. We’re practicing so that we can be ready if a ‘gig’ comes up. It doesn’t matter to me. I enjoy making music together with other musicians. It’s as simple as that. I’ve always thought of the harp as…
