Thanks – this made my day! I’d never thought of the harp as a jazz instrument – mental inflexibility right there – but turns out there are quite a few beautiful examples on youtube. A nice rendition of the Girl from Ipanema, for instance. Very cool.
I can only think of one way to make that better. Digitally remove the hand that is turning the page on the sheet music. This way, when you see the page turn, it would seem that he is using his Jedi powers to turn the page. 🙂
Either way, it is very fun.

I’m thinking about how hard it would be to take a full size harp to a jam session.
My face: !!!
My love: VAST.
My envy: JUST AS VAST.
I want my big gorgeous harp here. Sigh!

Thanks for the link, Mary! 🙂
That page turning hand created so much suspense!
The alpha-geek in me grins!
