Weird intrumentalists Unite! (1 Viewer)

[kit scara]

Don't suppose there are any other harpists out there?

 

[jjames-hall]

a whatsist? rofl, i hardy ever see one of em. Its an 'old' instrument so i spose not many are drawn to learn it...

I can play the spoons, does that count? :rofl:

 

[kit scara]

Wow, you haven't seen a harp? Deprived!!!

I want an electric harp. They're blue.

 

[Dragie]

The triangle is pretty cool

 

[ujuphleg]

If I may say so myself, that is one sexy harp.

I play oboe - thats a pretty weird instrument.

 

[kit scara]

I know, the triangle's hardcore!


It is a darn sexy harp. I wish it was mine. Mine's a littler lever harp, but it's still pretty. It's name is Lilly Rose, I named it when I was 7. If I had got it ow, I'd probably give it a sexy guy's name.. like... Tobias.... or Eugene.. something like that.
OHHHH MY GOODNESS! REALLY? I LOVE THE OBOE!! I have one, and I took lessons, but then I couldn't afford them any more. My school choir sang in the Opera house when I was.. about 7 when I think about it, and the orchestra played "Gabriel's Oboe" from the movie "The Mission" and we were just crying. Hey, have you heard Rimsky-Korsakov's "Scheherazade Suite"? I love the oboe in the second movement.

I know someone who plays harp and she's doing it 4 her HSC

 

[kit scara]

Good. Now go and kill her and bring me back her harp... and the Jade monkey before the next full moon. FLY MY PRETTY!!!!! FLYYYYYYY!!!

 

[kit scara]

Though you probably shouldn't because I probably know her. Does she/did she learn from Diana Owen in Canberra? And does she have a pedal or a lever harp? And if she has a lever, is it a Guster?
...and the poor woman is pulverised by the barage or question and dies a poetic yet gory death. I'm sorry, Nikki me love. I see from your sig you got an insanely high UAI and are doing a really awesome degree at the Con... maybe I should have you killed by my evil legion of the night and steal those things too.. **shifty eyes then notices you looking at her funny** Umm.. I didn't say that outloud.. this is a dreeeeeaaaaam...

 

[jjames-hall]

A girl in music 1 I knew used the baglama. What she played was absolutely beautiful!

How long have you been learning/playing?

oh, and the electric harp! hmmm... I might need to hassle you next semester when I'm back at uni. I might compose for it! It just got me so interested!

 

[FolkMusicIsTops]

i play 5-string and tenor banjo, mandolin, melodeon, Highland Bagpipe, Irish Bouzouki/cittern and hurdy-gurdy among others, does that qualify as unusual?
